The artwork depicts two figures aboard a ship, possibly sailors, as they bid farewell to another vessel, seen receding in the distance. The use of charcoal creates a moody, atmospheric tone, highlighting the sense of departure and isolation. Oldfield was known for his depictions of maritime life, often capturing the harsh realities of the sea.
