Study of a boeier

A boeier viewed from the starboard bow. Above the deck, only the bottoms of the forestay and mast are shown.

This is an unsigned offset by the Younger, which is slightly rubbed on the back. It is an offset from an accurately drawn original in thick pencil and has possibly been worked on by a later hand. It has been approximately dated by the watermark.
