At Sea

James McNeill Whistler, probably 1901

The image depicts figures near a structure with poles, potentially on a ship deck. The drawing uses minimalistic and loose lines to outline the forms of a group of figures leaning towards a railing or edge. The structure may be a building or part of a ship. The lines are sparse, focusing on movement and form rather than detail, creating a sense of simplicity and fluidity in the scene.
