The use of bold colors and simple forms gives the painting a sense of energy and movement. Key Features of the painting include:

• The use of oil as the primary medium, which adds depth and texture to the painting
• The depiction of everyday life, in this case, the crew members working on the boat
• The emphasis on color and composition, which creates a sense of balance and harmony in the painting
