TLF: "At this stage I went back to my easel and painted something that was not a sailing-ship ... not a new image but one that I had before: in Paris, when I had made a drawing of it. It was inspired by two books by W. McFee (Captain Macedoine’s Daughter and The Harbormaster). ... I took my title of the drawing and painting from the author’s comments on the scoundrel, Gallowbirds. [I painted him] exact in every detail, of my garb in Paris of the period of 1934, while the lady is swathed in a blue-and-white striped blanket of my possession." [305]
