Verso: (Study of a Large Ship and Submarine at Sea)

1895–1899

A vintage ink sketch of a sailboat with a single mast and a large sail on the open water, with a small figure visible on the boat. The drawing is done on aged, yellowed paper with some creases and tears, and the scene is depicted with expressive, fluid lines suggesting movement on the water's surface.
