About this work

A colour illustration shows two pirates in a struggle on a sandy beach, one gripping a dagger while the other lunges with a blade beside an open treasure chest and a shovel. Other crew members, dressed in white shirts and red headscarves, watch from the dunes under a pale moon and a windswept pine. This plate is from Howard Pyle's Book of Pirates, published in 1921.
