The image is a black and white sketch of a seascape. The drawing is divided into two pages of a sketchbook. The left page depicts a flat, calm sea with a distant shoreline; the right page depicts a steep cliff on the right with the sea in front. The sea spans the bottom of both pages. The right page shows darker shading on the cliff. There are handwritten notes on both pages: "Charibdis 1904" on the bottom left and "Sketch from Malta" on the bottom right. The sketching style is simple and impressionistic. The overall tone is monochromatic. The image has a white border around it.
