This image, in woodcut style, features two figures. The central figure is standing in water, depicted from the upper thighs up to the head, slightly bent forward with hands at the waist. The face shows basic features with short hair. The figure is wearing a sleeveless garment. Another figure is partially visible behind them. The background shows water with horizontal lines for waves, bordered by a dark expanse for sky or landscape, with stylized clouds. The artist's initials "FV" are in the bottom right corner.
