Studies of shadows on topsail
Studies of shadows on topsails. A main topsail and topgallantsail full and the fore topsail shivered; shown from the port quarter, the sun shining from the starboard quarter throwing on to the sails a shadow (wider at the bottom than at the top) from the main topmast and topgallantmast, and putting the fore topsail in complete shadow from the main topsail. Shadow on the starboard leech of the main topsail marked in brown ink
