Artistcirca: 1935. A single white sails white sailboat very small in the center of the frame. Caribbean sea. The background is atmospheric and dynamic.
An oil painting depicts a large, elegant two-masted schooner sailing on a dark blue sea under a dramatic sky. The schooner has a black hull with a white stripe, and its white sails are full, indicating it's moving through the water, with white foam around its bow. A small French flag, red, white, and blue, flies from the top of the rear mast. In the background, several smaller white sailboats are also visible on the wavy sea. The sky is a deep, dark blue, filled with heavy, ominous clouds, but brilliant rays of sunlight pierce through a break in the clouds in the upper left corner, casting shafts of light onto the water and the schooner. The overall mood is one of majestic power and dramatic light.
