This print showcases a bustling harbor with fishing boats safely docked amidst rough seas beyond the protective sea wall. The painting, housed in the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, West Midlands, is an exquisite example of British art from the early 20th century.

The image evokes a sense of safety and shelter amid the unpredictable forces of nature. It serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity, home can be found within familiar surroundings such as this picturesque harbor. This artwork was featured in "Modern Masterpieces of British Art" published by The Amalgamated Press Ltd. , London around 1930.
