Gloucester Wharves - Sunset 1916

"Gloucester Wharves - Sunset" is a 1916 etching by Philip Little, depicting a serene scene of a Gloucester harbor at sunset. Little, known for his masterful use of etching, captures the tranquility of the scene with detailed lines. The silhouetted ships, the calm water reflecting the last rays of the sun, and the textured sky create a harmonious composition. The etching, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases Little's ability to convey a sense of quietude and the beauty of the natural world.
