Painting of a sea battle between two ships. The ship on the left is larger, with three masts and several American flags flying. The ship on the right is smaller, with smoke billowing from it and an American flag still flying. The sea is choppy with white capped waves. The sky is blue with large white and grey clouds. The larger ship is dark green with a white hull. The ship on the right is dark with part of the upper deck destroyed. People are visible on both ships.
