The image depicts a sepia-toned etching of a harbor scene titled "Breaking up of the Agamemnon" by Francis Seymour Haden. The large ship, possibly a warship, sits in the center, listing to one side and partially dismantled. Two masts remain standing on the ship, with rigging hanging from them. The ship's hull is open, showing empty space where its decking has been removed. Several other ships and boats are in the background. The water in the foreground appears choppy. The artist's signature is in the bottom right corner. The artwork is on a beige background with rough edges.
