This has to be one of my favourite paintings … it’s called “Breezing Up” by Winslow Homer.
What I really love about it is that it appears to be a picture of an older man (sitting inside the boat controlling the mainsheet) instructing the three youngsters how to sail.
Hell …. the painting tells it all … what more can I say!
That’s a great painting, where did you find it?
Found this at AllPosters.com … but you can pretty much google it.
Winslow Homer did a heap of really nice Marine based paintings … worthwhile having a look
Cool. Reminds me of many happy days spent teaching kids to sail.
