Terrible Disaster! Loss of the Arctic! (from Sketchbook)
The image shows a page from a sketchbook with five sketches. The top-left sketch depicts a man sitting at a table, wearing striped pants and a dark jacket. The table is draped with fabric on the sides and back. The top-right sketch shows two men and a woman standing; two are wearing long robes. The bottom-left sketch features a man in a uniform with a hat, holding a paper. He stands with one arm on his hip and the other holding the paper. There is writing below him. The bottom-right two sketches: one shows a man with a hat, and the other shows people under an umbrella. The background of the page is white with some gray shading. A Roman numeral "II" is in the top-right corner.
