A old photograph captures a beautiful woman with long, straight dark hair seated behind a large wooden ship's steering wheel on a traditional sailing vessel. She is wearing a light- colored blouse with short sleeves and a delicate patterned neckline, paired with patterned pants. The woman has a calm and content expression with a subtle smile, looking directly at the camera. Her right hand grips the steering wheel while her left hand rests on its smooth, polished surface. Small, round buttons are visible on the wheel's spokes, and the wood shows signs of wear. In the midground, two white lifebuoys with dark stripes are suspended from the ship's rigging on either side of the woman, connected to thick ropes and chains. The background features a brick wall along the dockside. Trees are visible beyond the wall, and a multi- story urban building with numerous windows and horizontal ridges can be seen in the distance, providing a stark contrast between the natural and urban environments. The lighting is natural and evenly distributed, creating a balanced exposure with high contrast between the subject and the background elements. The composition centers the woman, emphasizing the nautical setting and creating a nostalgic, timeless atmosphere. The ship's deck is visible with various nautical equipment and ropes adding to the maritime ambiance
