The image is a black and white photograph of a large shipwreck in the water. The ship appears to be in a state of disrepair, with debris and debris scattered all over the deck. The hull of the ship is covered in rust and debris, and there are several large pipes and other machinery visible. The sky is overcast and the water is calm, suggesting that the photo was taken during the early 20th century. The caption on the image reads "Vollig mühlungener Handstreich der Engländer gegen Ostende" which translates to "The shipwreck of the English World War II" in English.
