拍品專文

Michael Howard (Lowry A Visionary Artist, Salford, 2000, p. 227) comments that 'Leisure boats and working ships held an endless fascination for Lowry, both as motifs in their own right and as sources for painterly effects. He regarded the problems of capturing the immensity of the sea and the quality of the light falling on its ever-changing surface as one of the major artistic challenges of his life'.
