The image shows a rocky coastal area. Two figures are seated on a ledge carved into the rockface in the foreground. The horizon is positioned halfway up the image, with the sun on the right, illuminating the sky and sea. The drawing exhibits detailed cross-hatching for texture on the rocks and sky. The color scheme is mainly soft greys and blacks, emphasizing the sunlight. The left side features the rocky formations, while the right side shows the sea and the sun.
