Influenced by the works of Edward Burra and Stanley Spencer, Large has created a style of his own with particular interest in shapes and working with location, activity, and colour. He is known for the exaggeration of the bodily form and his figures consist of mostly male figures. This painting honours the hard-working fishermen and the traditional characteristics of Maltese boats.Art / Paintingshttps://emuseum.heritagemalta.mt/objects/573/rdf
