Additional Details

Early watercolors like this work by Hopper as a teenager are exceedingly scarce. There are only several contemporaneous early watercolors, mostly studies of ships and figures, now in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (Josephine N. Hopper Bequest), and not another landscape watercolor from this early period with as complete a composition as the current work.
