The use of perspective and dynamic lines draws the eye, suggesting movement and an open invitation to explore. Depending on the specifics, elements such as stormy skies, crashing waves, or the ship's flags may add to the scene's emotional depth, evoking the spirit of adventure that "The American Boy" magazine embodied.
