A Carley liferaft
A grey/blue watercolour study of an empty Carley liferaft floating on calm water. It may be a study for a picture of 'ML282' picking up the crew of the 'Iphigenia' during the Zeebrugge Raid of 1918, in which her cutter is towing a Carley raft with Lt Bonham-Carter of the 'Intrepid' in it (repr. in M.A. Wyllie, 'We Were One' (1935).
