The image shows a seascape with looming cliffs on the left, turbulent waves on the right. The horizon is low, with the ocean meeting a sky full of swirling clouds. The cliffs contrast with the crashing waves at their base. Two small figures are on the shore, providing scale. The artwork is monochromatic, with a palette of blacks, grays, and whites. The brushstrokes are expressive, capturing the movement of the waves and clouds with vigor.
