The Queen Mary

Anton Bruehl American, born Australia

Not on view

The V-shaped piece of sky at the center of this photograph has an active dimension: it seems to push the great ocean liner away from its moorings. The rushing perspective and canted stairs make this representation of the huking stern of a motionless boat one of the raciest pictures in this collection.
