c. 1899–1900

A sketch depicting two figures, one dressed in an ancient mariner costume with a feathered cap and the other with long hair and a draped garment, walking side by side. The mariner appears to be gesturing or speaking to the other figure. In the background, there's a bench and a simple representation of a horizon line. The caption below reads "Ye Ancient Mariner detainith Ye Wedding Guest."
