DescriptionThe image is a rough sketch of a figure standing at the edge of a boat and throwing a net into the water; the figure is placed to the left of center and faces the left edge of the support. The figure's back is turned to the viewer and only one arm is visible as he leans forward; the net is composed up of undulating lines and the boat fades away on the right side. Everything is drawn in red and blue with yellow highlights.
