About this work

This painting shows a black-and-white scene with a few boats on the water. There are people around, but they're not very clear. The picture is made with a special technique where the artist cuts into a material called linoleum to create the design. The painting is simple but interesting. You can see the shapes of the boats and the people, but it's not very detailed. It's like a quick sketch, but it's still nice to look at. If you like this painting, you might want to learn more about the artist, William Zorach.
