Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Japanese Romance: Illustrated in Colours by Arthur G. Dove The wide expanse of sea through which the Orient Queen was steadily ploughing her way at a good fifteen knots was like a sheet of hammered brass. The fan-shaped wake, with its narrow, lacelike edge of white-churned foam, and the rounded swell of the North Pacific, sweeping through the Loochoo Islands, was all that disturbed its monotonous horizon-bounded surface. Underneath the white awnings of the promenade deck most of the passengers were lounging in chairs, keeping even their feet out of any lozenge-shaped patches of sunshine which, straying through too loosely laced edges of the awning, fell on the deck beneath. Those who were not too hot, or talking, cudgelled their brains into imagining they were cool. The officers not on duty, or below snatching a little belated sleep, were chatting with the passengers, their preference being obviously for the ladies.
