/1911 (On base, incised:) CAPTAIN NATHAN SARGENT/(Illegible...) 1902 -- U. S. NAVY/ISABEL HILL SARGENT/MARCH (illegible) 1924 -- HIS WIFE signed
Description:
A winged female figure is positioned directly in front of the bow of a boat. The rest of the boat is not visible, as it appears swallowed by a wave. The woman's proper right arm is raised, her proper right hand holding aloft a trumpet close to her lips. She wears a flowing, wave-tossed robe. Her proper left arm is down and slightly out, and she holds what appears to be a leaf or olive branch in her proper left hand. The sculpture sits atop a rough-hewn base with a polished, inscribed portion.
