Légende
Boy with Anchor, 1873. Like A Fisherman?s Daughter , this watercolour belongs to a series of works depicting the children of Gloucester, the nation?s busiest seaport. At this time, fishing had become extremely hazardous, as boats ventured ever further offshore to haul in large catches. The massive anchor pointing toward the sea foreshadows the weight of the boy?s maritime destiny.
