Dramatic perspective and meticulous technical detail applied to the the ships and their rigging. I wonder what's in all those packing cases lining the quay! Brilliant artwork!

Artist Reply: Those wooden crates were packed with clothing and household hardware or spare parts. Thanks Rusty.

A handsome watercolor painting with such a perfect balance of detail and open space.I marvel at the wispy delicacy of the ship's rigging! Excellent--
