Algiers Sail [...]

About this work

This watercolor shows a single ship sailing toward land. The boat has two tall masts with striped sails, and a few small figures stand on deck. In the background, a hilly coastline fades into a soft, pale sky. The painting is framed in a simple oval border, and the word "Algiers" is written below it. The artist signed it "J. Quinn," but little else is clear. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
