Uncolored engraving depicting warships at sea, with small boats on the water, and a landmass with buildings along the right. The sun is rising at far right, and in front of it, in the foreground, is a neo-Classical temple-like structure with Corinthian columns and a flat roof. In the center of the composition is a large warship seen from the side; she has three masts and four gun decks. A similar ship is seen in stern view in the left-hand background. Title is printed in lower margin, along with artist attributions and a royal coat of arms.
