Lambert's son Maurice was the model for this painting, which was a study for a mural for the ocean liner, Alsatian. Lambert's biographer, Anne Gray has dated this work, based on stylistic considerations, including the high key of the palette which was characteristic of Lambert's work from this period. Gray has also suggested that this work may be The Young Shepherd 1913, which was exhibited at the Grosvenor Galleries in Sydney in 1928.
