About the Item

Painting size w/o frame: 12”x16” Painting size with frame: 19"x23" In Gloucester, American artist William Smith Robinson (1861–1945) masterfully captures the vibrant energy of the historic fishing port. The brushwork is lively and expressive, with soft atmospheric tones suggesting a hazy summer day. Robinson’s impressionist touch brings light and motion to the composition, highlighting both the working vessels and the bustling waterfront town in the distance. Robinson was a respected painter of marine and coastal scenes, closely associated with the Boston School and the Cape Ann art colony. His work blends realism with a painterly spontaneity that celebrates the New England maritime tradition. Signed lower right.
