Various parts of the vessels and the shipbuilding apparatus are labeled with letters and numbers, and workmen are shown completing various tasks. In the foreground is a collection of spectators, with ship parts strewn over the ground around them, and a large dog inspecting the ground in the central foreground. The flags on the ships are colored in the Dutch colors; the rest of the image is uncolored. The engraver's name is printed on a spar in the foreground, and the publisher information is printed in the lower margin. At top right is printed "Pag. 5 No. 1".
