The image is a pencil sketch of a seascape with a horizon slightly above the center. The waves meet the sky and blend into the sandy texture of the paper. There are faint lines and dots on the horizon. Delicate brushstrokes create a serene scene. The palette is monochromatic. In the foreground, there are simple outlines of a small group of people on the beach. The sky dominates the composition, highlighting the open landscape.
