The Boating Party
2003

A painting depicting a woman and a man in a rowboat. The woman, dressed in a patterned dress and a hat with a bow, sits facing the viewer with a relaxed smile, holding an oar. The man, wearing a dark jacket and a cap, has his back to the viewer and is also holding an oar. They appear to be rowing together. The background features a calm blue sea with a coastline and buildings in the distance under a bright sky.
