DescriptionThe image is very dark and detail is difficult to discern. A ship that has run aground on a sand bar in the lower left corner fills the visual plane. Many figures on the ship are mixed with linear elements: oars, spears. a lifted cross. Dramatically a figure on the sand bar has been impaled by a spear. In the background, on the right, outlines of structures can be seen.On View
