Watercolour of moored barges

c.1900

About the Item

Moored Barges Watercolour 23 x 32 cm C.1900 This watercolour depicts two onlookers, perhaps a grandfather and granddaughter, watching over the moored barges in a canal. Although the location of this painting is unknown, the presence of horse-drawn barges and larger sailing vessels suggests that the setting may be situated at the confluence between a canal and the sea. The gentle terracotta tones of the roofs and footpath contribute a certain serenity to this otherwise industrial scene, as the artist successfully captures the aura of this early 20th century scene.
