Monochrome whaling scene: a spouting whale flips a whaleboat into the air with its tail; ropes and oars are depicted in midair, and one man is still inside the boat, upside down. Another whaleboat's harpooneersman has his harpoon in the whale; three more whale boats, and a large ship, in the background, along with two landmasses on the horizon. Title printed under the image.
