This piece depicts an old man sitting on a pile of rocks with his bag of oysters. He stares intently at the beautiful pearl in the palm of his hand. The colors are shade of light tan and blue grays. The band around his cap is navy blue and his pants are a shade lighter. There is a red anchor on his shirt with a chain around it. The delicate detailing is evident in the wrinkles in his clothing, his face and beard, his toes and fingers, and the flesh tones in the skin are amazing. The piece is marked under with the trademark "N" with a crown above in Blue. Also the words "Made in ITALY" are hand printed in black. On the backside of the piece is a signature inside a scroll "VoC lol" with an accent over the second "o".
