Description:
This 1967 watercolour by British artist John Steane (b.1931) captures the rugged charm of the Dorset coast with its time-worn fishing gear, gentle hills, and changing skies. In the foreground, a stack of traditional wicker and wire lobster pots, along with hanging fishing nets and weathered wooden boats, evoke the rhythms of a working shoreline. Behind them, calm turquoise waters curve into a distant headland, likely inspired by real locations along the Jurassic Coast such as Lulworth Cove or Charmouth.
Steane’s brushwork conveys a deep sensitivity to natural texture and mood. The turbulent clouds, luminous water, and varied shoreline are handled with confident fluidity, reflecting the artist’s mastery of watercolour and his affinity for coastal landscapes. This work is typical of mid-century British plein-air watercolour traditions—quietly observational yet compositionally strong, with earthy tones and a nostalgic palette.
Perfect for collectors of maritime art, British coastal scenes, or fans of post-war regional landscape painting, this piece embodies the balance between lived experience and artistic interpretation. It would make an evocative addition to any coastal or country interior, especially when paired with other works from the same series.

March Avery was born in New York in 1932 to painters Milton Avery and Sally Michel. Guided by her famous father, she began painting as a child—although as she would tell it, “I think I was painting in utero.” She had her first solo exhibition in 1963.
