About this work
A boy in a black tricorn hat with a red cockade, red coat and pale blue neckerchief stands behind a girl in a blue pinafore, holding a brass telescope to his eye as she reaches out to a seagull perched on the ship's rail. Overhead, strings of colored signal flags cross beneath a red canopy, with mast, rigging and rope visible at the edges, and a rolled scroll and apple resting on the rail.
Warm cream sky tones set off the red coat and blue accents, painted with smooth, softly lit academic modeling of the two faces. The calm sea light and the children's absorbed poses give the scene a playful, make-believe air of a sea voyage.
