Harbor of Boston, with the City in the Distance

Fitz Henry Lane

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a harbor scene with a city in the distance. A large body of water fills the bottom half of the image. Several ships are on the water, with one large ship on the right side featuring three masts and billowing sails. Another ship with three masts is on the left side. A small rowboat with a person rowing and another person sitting is on the left. The background shows a city skyline with buildings and a blue sky with clouds. The overall atmosphere suggests a calm day.
