Artist, Scottish, 1876 - 1953

The image shows a view from a slightly elevated angle overlooking a body of water with masted ships. The horizon is in the upper section with ship masts against a softly painted sky. Expressive brushstrokes depict movement in the water and foliage. The color palette includes soft blues and grays with darker accents outlining the ships and trees. Two silhouetted figures stand by the water, with more figures along the shoreline. The composition's tones and strokes create a serene yet lively atmosphere.
