(Sketches of Boats at Sea, Boy Floating in Water, Heads and Eyes)
1900

A vintage sketch on aged paper featuring various elements: at the top, a sailboat and a steamboat are depicted on calm waters; in the center, a rough sketch of a steamboat on waves; to the right, two sketched faces, one with more detail than the other; and at the bottom, a person swimming in wavy water with simplistic fish outlines nearby. The paper has a torn edge on the top left and some discoloration spots throughout.
