The image depicts a pumpkin used as a makeshift boat or ship on a body of water. The pumpkin is large and rounded with darker lines indicating sections. A small square opening on the side faces the viewer. A tall mast rises from the top center, supporting rigging and a flag; ribbons fly from the left and a smokestack on the right emits puffs of smoke. A curved sail extends to the left. A figure stands on the right of the pumpkin, holding a long pole. The foreground shows a shoreline with plants and grasses. Birds fly in the sky.
