Description: Dated 1992, this atmospheric watercolour by Tony Herbert captures Southwold Harbour, a beloved Suffolk fishing port known for its moored boats, rustic buildings, and tidal estuary views. Here, Herbert paints a sweeping perspective along the harbour road, leading the eye toward a busy wharf lined with boats and jetties on the right. The palette is light and subtle, with soft tonal transitions suggesting early morning haze or mist.
To the left, dark fishermen’s huts and wooden buildings contrast with whitewashed edges and yellow signage, painted in Herbert’s typical loose but observational style. A red flag fluttering in the middle distance adds a focal pop of colour. Human figures are rendered with minimal strokes, contributing a quiet sense of life and movement to the scene without distracting from the calm coastal environment.
Southwold Harbour is one of East Anglia’s most enduring maritime settings, and Herbert — known for his dedication to plein air painting — was particularly drawn to its working charm. This painting exemplifies his ability to distil real-life scenes into compositions that feel both immediate and timeless.
Ideal for collectors of marine landscapes, Suffolk coastal scenes, or traditional British watercolours with heritage appeal.
