Fishermen
1945

A colorful print depicting a group of people on a beach with a rowboat and several sailboats in the background on the water. The scene is rendered in a style that uses bold colors and strong outlines, suggesting an early to mid-20th-century printmaking technique. The foreground shows a sandy shore where two figures are walking towards the right, while another figure stands in the water next to the rowboat, which contains four individuals. The sea is depicted in shades of blue with white highlights, and the sky above is dark, suggesting either a stormy or a twilight setting. The print has a rough texture and is bordered by an unprinted margin, with the artist's signature in the bottom right corner.
