1894 New England Coastal Harbor Fishing Port Painting Boston Massachusetts Label

Description: For sale is a wonderful Boston School or New England School 19th Century 1894 signed Watercolor painting of a coastal fishing harbor certainly somewhere along the New England coast. We believe it could be Gloucester, Provincetown, Monhegan or possibly Boston Harbor. But we are uncertain. We are sure that the buildings depicted in the painting may be identifiable as to what fishing port this painting depicts. It features a coastal fishing harbor scene with tall masted fishing boats anchored dockside at the large fishing houses on the harbor. In the distance you can see some fishing boats approaching the harbor while some sailboats or full masted schooners sail along the bay. Beyond them you can see the houses of a small coastal village. In the foreground you can see a dockworker securing a fishing boat to the dock as the fisherman gazes off the stern of his boat with his reflection scattered down on the water below him. This painting is a watercolor with pencil and white body colour on the masts of the sailboats. We don't know who painted this picture. But we do know they were certainly a well schooled and talented artist of the era. The signature reads "I. S. 1894" We are sure some art experts of the New England coastal area can identify which artist painted this picture. Condition: Good. Laid down to stock Board. Age appropriate toning to paper.
