Description: | Dramatic depiction of the Sirens, three nude voluptuous females on a small island, their hands raised in gesture, one playing a lyre, all of them singing. Around them are strewn the decaying remains of dead sailors. In the background to right is Ulysses' ship, Ulysses bound struggling to the mast, surrounded by his men, struggling with the sails of the boat. Dark clouded sky and sea.
