Three River Boats · Distant Sail

A small boat, a long expanse of water. Three River Boats · Distant Sail uses colored brass. A small sail rests at the upper left, facing distant water lines at the lower right and a low shoreline. The center opens into a broad expanse of water. The shared rounded rectangular outline slightly taller than wide, fine inner border, thin warm-brass rim gathers the composition. Deep-brown colored brass with warm-brass relief and restrained silver-white accents is shaped by fine lines and shallow relief. A small sail at the lower right and two distant water lines at the upper left echo the front. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and coordinated fittings connect the two faces. Each has its own balance of detail and open space, while sharing the material, palette and decorative language of Three River Boats.
