A detailed geological engraving showing a cross-section of a cliff face. The cliff is composed of numerous horizontal layers of basalt, which are depicted with vertical hatching to indicate their texture. The layers are of varying thicknesses and are separated by distinct horizontal bedding planes. In the foreground, a small group of people is gathered on the shore, some standing and some sitting, near a small boat. The sky is filled with large, billowing clouds.

The sky is filled with soft, textured clouds.
