The painting depicts a chaotic scene. Dark water fills most of the scene with a few heads and bodies near the bottom and right side. The water is illustrated with numerous parallel and intersecting diagonal lines suggesting movement. Multiple horse heads and bodies are partially visible on the right side. The horses are submerged in the water, some appearing to struggle. In the upper right corner, an arm and hand are visible. The hand grips a long object, possibly a spear or staff, pointed to the left. The background on the left side consists of more wavy lines. The overall color scheme is sepia or monochromatic. The image represents a biblical scene known as The Submersion of Pharaoh's Army in the Red Sea by Titian.
