...large picture of Turner's middle period, representing a wide expanse of sea with a flat bottom boat ferrying passengers to a packet with sails spread. These two boats form a large mass in the centre of the picture, while, on the left, a buoy floating on the crest of the wave and a group of small boats in the middle distance are balanced by a single sailboat and the pier and city of Calais, seen in the extreme distance at the right.
