(Two Studies of Large Sailboats at Sea)
1892–1895

A sketch of two sailing ships on aged paper, with the drawing on the right showing more detail and including a flag at the top of the mast. The ships are depicted with multiple sails and are floating on wavy lines that represent water. The paper has a torn upper right corner and visible creases, indicating wear.
