Artist, Scottish, 1892 - 1963

The image shows a waterscape with a boat with prominent sails positioned towards the left. The horizon is low, and calm water reflects nearby structures and the boat. Two boats are docked on a pier towards the right, equipped with large nets. Cabins or sheds on stilts are seen beyond them along the waterline, creating depth. Line work is detailed, particularly in showing the boats and reflections in the water. The overall color palette is monochrome, mainly sepia, black, and white, creating a classic and serene quality with contrasting dark lines and lighter sky and water.
