Title: Moored Fishing Boat with Jetty and Distant Sheds East Coast Maritime Watercolour
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on artists paper
Size: 10.25 x 14.25 inches
Condition: good; slight edge curling consistent with unmounted paper, colours remain fresh
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: In this expressive and atmospheric watercolour, Tony Herbert captures a timeless view of Britain’s East Coast, with a moored fishing boat, angled wooden jetty, and distant line of coastal sheds silhouetted against a cool, shimmering sky. This is classic maritime subject matter, presented with Herbert’s characteristic looseness and immediacy.
The blue boat, marked with what appears to be a registration code, rests low in the tide, its reflection barely defined in the gently moving water. A simple dock extends from the shore, sketched in broken lines and ochre washes, while behind it, red-roofed buildings and shoreline greens fade into the horizon. A hazy, yellow-toned light spills across the water and sky, suggesting early morning or late afternoon sun burning through coastal mist — a signature touch in Herbert’s plein-air coastal studies.
The composition is carefully balanced between stillness and structure, with vertical masts and poles framing the horizontal movement of the shore. Painted likely during the artist’s time in Suffolk or Norfolk, this piece embodies Herbert’s deep connection to the working coastal landscape and his instinctive handling of light, form, and weather.
This work is ideal for collectors of British maritime painting, harbour scenes, and original coastal watercolours, particularly those with a taste for the informal, lived-in beauty of estuary and shoreline life. It would make a striking addition to rustic or nautical-themed interiors, especially in homes with links to the English coast.
