The scene takes place on the docks in the port of Antwerp. Several liners and boats of different sizes are represented. An original and modern shot with a foreground plunging us onto the deck of a barge where a sailor, the only human figure, is captured in full action. As if shrouded in a veil of mist, the atmosphere is diffuse and cold. The colors are subdued, in a gradation of pastel colours; only the bright orange band of the barge hull in the foreground adds warmth to the scene. The atmosphere is industrial and laborious.<\/p>\n

Sandy Hook, whose real name is George Taboureau, is a French painter, poster designer and illustrator specializing in representations of maritime scenes. He is named <\/span>official naval painter in 1917.<\/p>\n

A true enthusiast, he was only eleven years old when he made his first boat designs. A craving for production follows which will not leave him until his death.<\/p>\n

Sandy-Hook worked for the Messageries Maritimes, the Chargeurs R\u00e9unis, the Western Naval Company, the General Transatlantic Company and for many other companies: Fraissinet, Mixed Company, Paquet, Worms, Charles Le Borgne and many shipyards naval. He has produced numerous posters for transatlantic companies.<\/p>\n

Exhibitions and museums: <\/strong><\/p>\n
