Walter Holmes (British, b. 1936), pastel on paper. A bustling impressionistic harbour scene depicting the industrial port at North Shields, featuring the Low Lights area. The composition is viewed from a grassy, wildflower-covered overlook, looking towards the maritime buildings, cranes, and jetty. The artist employs a soft, atmospheric palette for the hazy, clouded sky, contrasted with vigorous, textured strokes in the foreground foliage and delicate line work defining the distant port machinery. Signed W.H. Holmes in the lower right corner. Presented in a traditional warm-toned wood frame with a gilded inner fillet, protected by a cream-coloured mat and glass. [Height] x [Width] cm
