The work, which was one of several Homer painted in the town of Gloucester, Massachusetts, depicts two children carrying a basket of clams as they walk along the beach. It is typical of the vigorous layout and light of Homer's early watercolors, reminiscent of his earlier career as an illustrator.
It is the earliest watercolor by Homer in the Metropolitan Museum and was the gift of Arthur G. Altschul in 1995.
