Catalog Description
-
A wet sheet and a flowing sea,/ A wind that follows fast,/ And fills the white and rustling sail,/ And bends the gallant mast./ The white waves heading high, my lads,/ the good ship bright and free,--/ The world of waters is our home,/ And merry men are we.--/ (Allan Cunningham)

Several sailboats with reddish-brown sails approach a stone pier, with people gathered on the dock. A hillside town and a castle atop the hill overlook the harbor under a cloudy sky.
