About this work

The painting shows a young boy standing at the tiller of a small sailing boat while an older bearded man in a cap and purple shirt, smoking a pipe, leans forward and gestures toward the water. A large ship with several masts sails on the horizon under a pale sky. Henry Scott Tuke painted The Steering Lesson in 1892.
