Illustration 38.

Becalmed

Four fishing boats off the coast of Brittany, typical craft made use of by these sturdy toilers of the sea. For the moment they are at rest. There is no breath of wind, and the lazily undulating waters, emerald in their crystal clearness, hold the reflection of rose colors from the sails of the boats, making them look like tender flowers of the sea. The composition, triangular in its lines, is very effective.
