The image depicts a female figure standing alongside nautical elements. She is draped in flowing garments and her right hand is positioned as if gesturing towards a crescent moon. In the background, there is a large ship with tall masts, and in front of the woman is an oversized lobster or crustacean. Smaller ships can be seen in the distant waters. The artwork is executed in a monochrome palette.
