Description: After being dropped by the eagle over the water, a ship saw Gulliver’s house floating in the ocean. Gulliver made a white flag and flew it through the sunroof to signal that he needed help. A team of crew members went out to Gulliver’s house and pulled it back to the ship and rescued Gulliver. Here we see a crew member kneeling on top of the house speaking to Gulliver.
