The original concept is illustrated by this Marine marksman who is high above the fighting top, and after the battle, is taking a well-earned rest by lollygoggin' - seated on the bullet-scarred spar of the mast, with his feet sprawled over the sail. This cool and comfortable method of relaxing was frowned upon because a sudden shift of wind or calm could cause the sail to collapse and make for a rather quick descent to the deck below. This was the only pastel drawing I had made since art school, and was used as the only full-color poster for a museum show.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Excerpt from \u003ci\u003eMarines and Others: The Paintings of Colonel Charles Waterhouse USMCR (Ret)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47186334417045,"sku":"106791","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/1882\/1013\/files\/106791.jpg?v=1775485188","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookstore1775.com\/products\/marines-in-the-frigate-navy-by-charles-waterhouse","provider":"The Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
