Study of Sailboats (from Sketchbook)

Henry Ward Ranger

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Pencil sketch on paper of three sailboats on water. The sailboat on the left is in the upper corner. It has two masts. The sailboat in the middle of the image is centered and has two masts. The boat on the right is mostly a line with an angled line and a curved line. The background is a light gray color, with some darker gray shading to indicate water. The sketch is simple and appears to be a study or quick drawing. The style is straightforward and not highly detailed. The image is by Henry Ward Ranger and titled "Study of Sailboats (from Sketchbook)".
