Two boats sailing, print, annotation: 'III', printmaker: Jules Guiette, 1862 - 1901, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, height 318 mm x width 236 mm, sailing-ship, sailing-boat, water course, A dark-toned image showing a small boat on calm water with smoke rising from its center, the boat's hull reflected in the water below. Two tall masts rise behind the boat, thin rigging lines angled between them, and a small tattered flag hangs from the taller mast. Dense, textured foliage frames the scene in the background on either side, and a softly lined sky fills the upper portion of the image. The overall composition uses fine, linear shading and crosshatching to render shadows and reflections.
