In this intimate canvas, the artist has shown us the risks of rough seas even under sunny skies, as well as endless competition for the catch looming in the background. And which two or three crewmen get picked to venture out in that vulnerable dinghy? Aboard the tiny boat, they’d be constantly adjusting their balance and enduring chilling sea spray while directly holding fishing lines or even trawling, done by dragging a line with multiple hooks.
