Edward Hopper

(Study of Ships In Harbor)
1895–1899

Sketch on paper depicting a bustling harbor scene with various ships and boats, some with smokestacks emitting smoke. The water is illustrated with wavy lines, and buildings can be seen in the background along the shore. The drawing has a quick, loose style, suggesting it may be a preliminary work or a study.
