In this artwork, we are transported to an estuary where the mighty towboat proudly sails through calm waters. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes bring life to every element depicted - from the billowing flags fluttering atop the ship's mast to the paddle steamers gracefully gliding alongside.
