The image depicts a black-and-white drawing of an ancient ruin. The ruin consists of a tall pillar on the left, and an ornate archway to the right of it. The pillar is square and tapers very slightly as it rises. The top of the pillar appears to be broken and covered in plants. The archway has intricate carvings on the top and on either side. Several people are in the foreground, on the left a person stands on a box or crate in a body of water, and another person is crouched down next to them. On the right side, a person stands holding a long pole. The background features trees, additional ruins, buildings and a cloudy sky. The image is signed "A. Canal" at the bottom.
