This contemporary watercolour on paper with gouache highlights depicts a British harbour scene with several fishing trawlers moored alongside a stone quay. In the background stands a prominent white hexagonal lighthouse or harbour tower under a sky of light blue washes and soft clouds. The vessels are detailed with registration codes including HE 36 for Hartlepool, MW 27 for Montrose, and DB 62 for Dumfries. The work is executed in a traditional representational style with fine line work and layered washes to define the textures of the stone quay, the water reflections, and the weathered boat hulls. It is signed and dated in the lower-left corner K.A. OLVER 00. The painting is professionally presented in a triple mount with tan, dark red, and white layers, housed within a dark wood frame featuring a gilt inner slip.
