Black and white drawing of a sea scene with turbulent waves crashing against rocky outcrops on either side. The waves are depicted in varying shades of gray, with white highlights indicating foam. The sky above is filled with diagonal lines suggesting wind and stormy weather. The drawing is rectangular, with a thick white border around it. A darker line borders the inner edge of the white border. The image appears to be a sketch or study, with loose and expressive lines.
