A horizontal lithograph in black ink on beige paper depicts two weathered sailing ships. On the left, a ship's broad stern faces us, while the larger vessel on the right angles forward. A dense, chaotic tangle of masts and rigging webs across the hazy sky. Deep shadows and dark, hatched lines create heavy textures on the wooden hulls and shimmering water. A lone, dark buoy floats in the distance on the left.
