About the Item
Brilliantly painted in rich hues of cerulean, purple, deep pink and burnt siena, this abstracted view of a dockside scene was painted by John De Forest Stull. The artist shows many iconic symbols of the fishing dock, including half-submerged posts, a massive iron cleat, and a concrete pier, surmounted by a seagull surrounded by an aureole of sky. Stull graduated from Yale in 1933, then worked with Ezra Augustus Winter on the murals of Radio City Music Hall before involving himself in one of two New Jersey chapters of the Works Progress Administration/Federal Arts Project.
