![A putto is sitting against a rock. He has his legs crossed. He has his left hand pressed against its head in a state of mourning. In the background, on the left, are several ships heading out to sea. On the rock is inscribed the name: [CAPTAIN / COOK]. Below the print, there is text which we believe to be the artist's signature. However, the text is too small to make such a determination.]( https://images.collection.cooperhewitt.org/238165_afdc4f3b7d82845b_b.jpg
