This sketch shows three sailboats on choppy water near a rocky shore. The waves crash against the rocks, and the boats look ready to sail. The sky is light with a few wispy clouds, and the whole scene is drawn in simple, loose lines. Notice how the artist captures the rough texture of the water and the boats’ ropes. The drawing feels quick but precise, like a snapshot of a moment. Want to see more? Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art.
