This is a drawing of a decorative ship figurehead. The image depicts a figurehead that would adorn the prow of a ship. The upper body of the figurehead is that of a woman, dressed in intricate clothing with ornate patterns and layers. Her extended right arm holds an object, while her styled hair flows past her shoulders and down her back. The figurehead features textures resembling a sculpture's appearance. The base below the figurehead is artistically carved.
