About the Item

This evocative painting captures the bustling atmosphere of a harbour, with ships crowded together at dock under a moody sky. The artist employs a muted colour palette and expressive brushstrokes to convey the industrial character of the vessels, their masts and rigging creating a complex geometry that draws the eye across the canvas. Well presented in a simple off-white frame. Signed illegibly. On canvas on stretchers.
