About the piece

Painted in 1914 by Max Slevogt, this work captures a lively scene of figures navigating a vessel through bright, reflective waters. Part of Slevogt's travel-inspired oeuvre, the piece features the artist's signature energetic brushstrokes and a sun-drenched palette of Mediterranean blues and sandy ochres.
