Boudry, is not only an ex- ample of vigorous and skillful brush work, but a fine bit of character study. The type portrayed is one of those o.d men of the sea, bluff and sturdy, hardened by rude labor, danger, and exposure to the elements. They are apt to be curt of speech and often so taciturn that the appel- lation “a sad sea dog” is fittingly bestowed upon them. In most of them, however, there is generally concealed beneath their rough exterior a large heart and often a vein of humor, which only requires an occasion to be T The effect of wear and exposure to variable weather upon the gar- ments of those who toil on the sea, or in the flelds, is to destroy their color and bring various colors into a harmony of neutral tones which is nearly always picturesque and agreeable to the eye.
