Uncolored engraving divided into two scenes with a horizontal line. Top, two side views of hairy seals, the upper one of which carries a young one tucked under its front flipper. In the same frame, below the seals, are three men, two in loincloths with long hair, one in more Europeanized clothing but without shoes or stockings, all carring lances or harpoons. Lower frame, men on a shore skin a seal; other whaleboats and a large ship are seen in the background.
