This is a drawing of a group of figures on a small boat. The artwork shows several figures gathered on the deck of a boat, illuminated by a torch. The scene suggests they are on water, with visible waves below. The figures wear classical garments, with one holding a torch that lights their surroundings. Their expressions and posture suggest urgency or concern. Cross-hatching lines create contrasts of light and shadow, adding to the dramatic intensity. The background includes masts and rigging of other ships.
