The image is a sketch of a person facing a body of water. The person is shown from behind, holding a thin object in one hand. They are wearing a high-collared dress with long sleeves and a long skirt, along with a hat adorned with a feather or embellishment. The person's hair is neatly styled under the hat, and no facial features are visible. A dog is depicted standing next to the person, looking towards the water. In the background, there are outlines of sailboats on the water, a crescent moon in the sky, and buildings that resemble docks or industrial structures. The sketch is done in soft, grayscale tones.
