Bancel La Farge

Moonlight at Sea; A Passing Squall
n.d.

A watercolor painting depicting a serene seascape with a dark, overcast sky above a calm sea. The horizon is highlighted by a thin line of light, suggesting a break in the clouds or the onset of dusk. The artwork shows signs of age with rough edges and some discoloration, and there is handwriting at the bottom indicating the artist and date.
