About the Item

This c.1950s painting by Charles Vickery, Small Boat on the New England Harbor, captures the artist’s hallmark sensitivity to maritime atmosphere and coastal light. Vickery’s scenes often center on the quiet poetry of working harbors, and this composition beautifully reflects that focus. The red-hulled boat anchors the painting with a vivid pop of color, its reflection shimmering across the calm water in loose, confident brushstrokes. Around it, the wharf buildings, pilings, and distant boats dissolve into soft pastels and cool grays that suggest the haze of an early harbor morning. Vickery’s ability to balance structure with spontaneity gives the painting a sense of immediacy while retaining deep serenity. It is a strong example of his mid-century coastal work, capturing both the rhythm of harbor life and the contemplative stillness of water and sky. This painting comes unsigned with frame in excellent condition.
