專家說明

This image was used as the cover illustration for the 1923 calendar for the Berwind-White Coal Mining Company. It relates to four panoramic murals painted by Wyeth in 1915 for the walls of the submarine grill at the Traymore Hotel, Atlantic City. Wyeth and La Gorce shared a love of pirate lore, and through this shared interest, La Gorce acquired this painting.
