The image is a diptych, consisting of two black and white illustrations. Both illustrations depict scenes on water, with a stylized, graphic quality. The first illustration, titled "SUN-AND-MOON AND BING", shows two figures riding large circular objects representing the sun and moon across a wavy water surface. The figure on the sun wears a hat and appears to be steering with a long pole. The figure on the moon also wears a hat and is similarly steering. The sun and moon are depicted as solid black circles with simple facial features. The water is represented by a series of curved lines. The second illustration, titled "THE BOATMAN AND THE WHALES", shows a small boat with a figure inside, being pulled by two large whales. The boat is dark and simple in shape. The whales are large, white, and have simple facial features. They are connected to the boat by a rope. The water is again represented by curved lines, and there are a few small clouds in the sky.
