The image is a black and white photograph of a large ship sailing on the ocean. The ship appears to be a passenger ship, with multiple masts and a flat deck. It is sailing on a calm, vast expanse of water, with no other ships or boats visible in the background. The sky is overcast and the horizon line is visible at the bottom of the image. The photograph is taken from a low angle, looking up at the ship as it sails across the water.
