A horizontally oriented print in black ink on light paper depicts figures in loose, gestural lines on a rocky shoreline. In the lower center, people pull themselves onto a ledge from the water. To the right, a person in armor leans on a long sword amid a huddled group. On the cliffside behind them, a dense crowd gathers. To the far left, a solitary silhouette stands on a high precipice, looking toward the horizon.
