The Offering

Charles W. Hawthorne painted T he Offering in Provincetown, Massachusetts, where he had established the summertime Cape Cod School of Art. In this composition, two boys present gifts of a toy boat and a basket of fish to a modern Madonna and Child. Many of the artist's works focused on Provincetown's large community of Portuguese immigrants who worked primarily in the fishing and whaling industries.
