About this object

Represented is a scene on board a boat. There are two men in dark blue suits seated at the left. A woman in a white dress and hat is seated at a table on the right. The table is covered with a white cloth on top of which are tea utensils. They are drinking a beverage from blue and white cups. There is a waiter in a dark blue suit at the center who is holding a tray set with two covered dishes and green and yellow fruit. Behind the two men is a porthole. To the right of the woman are the sides of the boat, and two poles are seen which hold up the awning above the people. In the right distance is the sea with a boat upon it.
