Outward Bound, The Mauretania

A large ocean liner with four dark funnels steams across a gray harbor toward the viewer, its decks crowded with tiny figures under a hazy sky. In the foreground, rows of white-capped wooden pilings line the pier, and a small tower and launch sit at the right edge.

Español: Partida, el Mauretania

Un gran transatlántico con cuatro chimeneas oscuras avanza por una bahía grisácea hacia el espectador, con cubiertas llenas de pequeñas figuras bajo un cielo brumoso. En primer plano, hileras de pilotes de madera con remates blancos bordean el muelle, y a la derecha aparecen una pequeña torre y una lancha.

Português: Partida, o Mauretania

Um grande transatlântico de quatro chaminés escuras avança por uma baía cinzenta em direção ao observador, com os conveses cheios de pequenas figuras sob um céu enevoado. No primeiro plano, fileiras de estacas de madeira com topos brancos margeiam o cais, e à direita aparecem uma pequena torre e uma lancha.
