EDITORS COMMENTS
A Harbour by Sunset" is a captivating and evocative watercolour and bodycolour drawing by the English artist Kenneth Denton Shoesmith, created in 1913. The painting depicts a tranquil harbour scene bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun. The vibrant orange and pink hues of the sun cast a beautiful reflection on the calm, shimmering water, while the boats moored in the harbour add a sense of stillness and serenity to the scene. Shoesmith's masterful use of colour and brushwork brings the harbour to life, with intricate details visible in the textures of the water, the sails of the boats, and the buildings along the shoreline. The artist's skillful application of bodycolour adds depth and dimension to the painting, making it feel as if the viewer is standing right there on the dock, taking in the breathtaking view. Kenneth Denton Shoesmith was a prolific and talented artist, known for his landscapes and seascapes, particularly of the English coast. His work was exhibited widely in the early 20th century, and he was a member of several prestigious art societies. "A Harbour by Sunset" is a prime example of his ability to capture the beauty and mood of a natural scene, and it continues to be a beloved work among art collectors and enthusiasts today. This stunning watercolour and bodycolour drawing is a testament to Shoesmith's artistic vision and skill, and it invites the viewer to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of a peaceful harbour at sunset. Whether hung in a home or office, "A Harbour by Sunset" is sure to bring a sense of calm and beauty to any space.
