Harlem River Scene c. 20th century

"Harlem River Scene" (c. 20th century) by Ernest Lawson (1873-1939) depicts a serene waterfront scene with a vibrant palette. Boats rest along the shore, their reflections shimmering on the water. The artist’s Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and dappled light, capturing the fleeting nature of the scene. Lawson’s signature in the lower right corner adds authenticity to the Minneapolis Institute of Art piece.
