A vertically oriented linocut print in bold black ink on light paper depicts three figures in a boat over stylized, arched waves filled with fish. On the left, a person cradles a child. Another figure stands on the right near a mast. Behind them, gabled houses sit before rounded trees and a tall, central tower. White, banner-like clouds hang in the dark sky above.
