This is a drawing of a ship with mythical decorations. The ship is adorned with dragon figureheads emitting smoke or steam. Figures in ancient armor line the sides, some holding spears upright. The deck is crowded with these figures. The stern is elevated with grand carvings, featuring a figure with a staff. Minimal detail is given to the water. The drawing has a historical period interpretation with a strong linear quality typical of engravings.
