Uncolored etching depicting three ships at sea, flying Dutch flag, and a small boat in the left-hand foreground with a crew of rowers. The rightmost vessel is seen in side view, and is single-masted; the two at left are seen in stern views. More vessels of many sizes in background. At far left is what may be a whale spout; one of the men in the rowboat is carring a long rod with a hooked end, which may be a harpoon. Artist and publisher names given in top left and right corners. At left, "R. Zeeman fe. Ar. Tooker Excud. Londini." At right, "Carolus Allard Excud. Amsteldami."
