Earl Horter

Gloucester Docks
1935

A watercolor painting depicting a maritime industrial scene with a focus on a dry-docked boat in the foreground. The background features a series of buildings, including one with "GORTONS COLDSTORAGE" written on it, and tall masts of ships rising against a cloudy sky. The artwork is signed by the artist in the lower right corner and dated August 1925. Visible paper edges suggest the painting is on a sheet torn from a larger pad.
