DescriptionA rough, sketchy composition of a marshy landscape. In the center foreground, a group of four figures stand together. Behind them across the water, vertical nets are strung across tall slender waving poles, and appear to be catching seabirds. A duplicate impression of this print is also in the collection, printed slightly differently with a darker, more contrasted plate tone (PC2014.14.26).
