New England Harbour 1923

"New England Harbour" is a vibrant oil painting by Maurice Prendergast, created in 1923, just a year before his death. The painting depicts a lively scene in a New England harbor, with figures gathered on a grassy area, houses lining the waterfront, and a sailboat at anchor in the distance. Prendergast's distinctive style is evident in the use of bold, flat colors and simplified forms, giving the painting a sense of energy and movement. The painting is a testament to Prendergast's ability to capture the spirit of everyday life in a unique and evocative manner.
