Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Ship, Oars, Hands, and List of Names)
1892–1895

A hand-drawn sketch featuring a central image of a sailboat with billowing sails above a cloud of smoke, flanked by two hands pointing towards it from the sides. Above the boat, a flag on a pole with the letters "BIC" is depicted. Below the central image are two rows of rectangles, possibly placeholders for text, with handwritten names beneath them, including "Harold Green," "Glozanna," "Louis Blarvelt," "Mary M.," "Harry MacArthur," "Bubble," "Eddie Hopper," and "Water Witch." The paper shows signs of aging with a slightly yellowed background and a small stain at the bottom right.
