Black and white image of a decorative frame. The frame has a thick border with a design on top and two pillars on either side. The design on top resembles a ribbon or scroll with leaves and flowers. The pillars are wrapped with fabric or netting and resemble plants with leaves and stems. Inside the frame is a simple line drawing of a rounded boat or vessel on water with waves. The boat has a flat front and a curved back. The water has ripples and there are some seaweed-like plants at the bottom. The background of the image inside the frame is mostly empty with some faint lines. The frame sits on a light-colored background. The overall image is in a simple black and white style. Title: A Voyage to New Zealand (1842-1846). Artist: Charles Meryon.
