About this work

A small boat of uniformed sailors approaches a sandy shore where a crowd of bare-skinned islanders with spears and body decoration gathers, some gesturing in welcome. A tall-masted sailing ship sits in the bay at right, with a red flag flying, beneath green trees, palms and mountains.
