Reginald Marsh

Locomotive, Number 2
1929

A watercolor painting from 1929 by Reginald Marsh depicting a black steam locomotive on tracks with a large industrial building in the background. Two figures in white overalls stand in the foreground, seemingly in conversation. The sky is painted with soft blue hues and scattered clouds, while a network of power lines stretches across the upper part of the scene.
