The image appears to be a stylized, somewhat cartoonish illustration with the title "THE DANCE OF DEATH (San Pedro)" written at the top. The scene is set on a dockside, where a skeletal figure dressed in a suit and a woman in a red dress with yellow polka dots are dancing. The skeletal figure, representing death, holds the woman's hand as they dance.

In the background to the right, a large ship is docked, and the dock extends out over the water. Lines indicating reflected light and movement are visible on the water's surface, and a crescent moon illuminates the sky. To the left of the dancers, a couple of small buildings or shacks with windows and doors are visible, one of which has a radiating sun symbol above a window. There is a rat near the edge of the dock.

The overall color scheme consists of yellows, reds, greys, and blacks, creating a vibrant yet eerie depiction of the scene. The illustration has a woodcut, expressive quality, suggestive of older, traditional printmaking techniques.

The image depicts a stylized illustration titled "THE DANCE OF DEATH (San Pedro)" showing two figures in the foreground engaged in a dance on a jetty or dock. On the left, a woman wearing a red dress with yellow polka dots is dancing with her arms raised toward the figure opposite her. She has blonde hair and is looking at her dance partner. Her partner, shown on the right, is a skeletal figure, suggesting a representation of death. This figure wears striped pants and their skeletal form is clearly visible, with bones and skull exposed.

In the background, there's an active harbor scene with details such as a large sailing ship, water, and a waterfront with buildings. There are wavy lines filling the sky, and a stylized sun with rays in the upper left corner. There's a dark window or possibly an image within a frame on the building to the left. In the water, there's an individual rowing a small boat, also to the left of the dancing couple. The color palette includes primarily yellow, black, and white, with the selective use of red for the woman's dress.

At the bottom right corner, there appears to be the artist's signature, and a large number "3" is in the lower right corner, which might indicate this piece is part of a series or sequence. The graphic nature of the illustration suggests influences of woodcut or linocut printmaking techniques.

Here's a description of the image:

This is a woodcut-style print titled "The Dance of Death (San Pedro)." The print has a bold, graphic style with black outlines and areas of color, primarily yellow, gray, and red, against a white background.

The scene depicts a stylized port or dockside area. On the left, there's a building with a prominent window emitting rays of light and a door in shadow.
