The image captures the essence of rowing races, with its vibrant depiction of a waterman competing in the famous Doggetts Coat and Badge race. The waterman's costume is meticulously detailed, reflecting the rich history and tradition associated with this iconic event. His coat proudly displays the coveted badge, symbolizing his skill and dedication as a rower. The artist has expertly captured the determination on his face as he navigates through rough waters, showcasing both strength and agility. This print offers us a glimpse into an era when boat races were highly regarded sporting events across Europe. It transports us to Corsica, France - where this particular scene unfolds - evoking images of picturesque landscapes along its coastlines.
