by Fitz Henry Lane, 1850
Fitz Henry Lane executed this serene 1850 view of Boston Harbor. Ships rest on glassy calm water under a luminous sky. Lane was the leading American marine painter of his era, known for capturing light on water with quiet precision.
The painting measures 66 × 107 cm, executed in oil on canvas. Lane's style anticipated the Luminists who followed. This work hangs at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
