The painting depicts an intricate and detailed fish-shaped submarine in a steampunk style. The boat's hull is made up of metal panels and mechanisms, with internal gears, pipes and pistons exposed. The boat is set on antique drawing paper covered with folds, scuffs and drawings. Around the boat are the engineer's tools - compasses, rulers, pencils and ink pens, emphasizing the technical nature of the work. The edges of the paper are slightly worn, and in some places notes and comments are visible, adding a personal touch. The composition is balanced, and the use of light and shadow creates a sense of volume and depth, making the image realistic and captivating.
