A horizontally oriented print in black ink depicts four boys with light skin tones in a harbor. On our left, one boy in a dark boat holds a long oar vertically. In the center, a nude boy stands facing away, only his back visible, with hands on his hips. To our right, another boy sits wearing a hat and suspenders. A fourth boy swims nearby. Sailboats dot the horizon against a pale sky.
