A World War II era American sailor standing at a round chart table, leaning in to plot a course with dividers across a navigational chart. He wears the classic navy uniform with a square sailor collar, knotted neckerchief and a white round cap, his creased trousers and buttoned jumper cleanly detailed.

The circular chart surface, marked with plotting lines, makes this a self-contained working vignette rather than a plain standing pose, evoking the navigation or plotting station of a wartime vessel.

An excellent character piece for a 1940s naval or shipboard diorama, a dockside or home-front scene on a model-railroad layout, or a wargaming table needing command and support crew.
