- Description
- In this image we see a cabin boy from Gulliver’s ship first seeing Brobdingnag. He climbs one of two rope ladders up the mast. He waves down to others on the deck to signal his discovery to the others on the ship. The boy is barefoot and wears short pants and a loose shirt. Just below his feet we see the top of one of the sails. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
