| Place of origin |
A group of boys of various ages stand on a sandy bank, crowding around one older boy who has a make-shift fishing rod dangling in the water. They are wearing school uniform-esque dress with plus fours and blazers and either caps or boaters. A number of large terraced houses line the waterfront in the background, along with a variety of trees and bushes. The print is almost a perfect square in shape.
