Description
Stage Fort across Gloucester Harbor by Fitz Henry Lane 1862
Bathed in the light of a summer’s late afternoon, this painting shows the overgrown Stage Fort, which was a relic of the seventeenth century settlement of Gloucester. The dramatic evening light and still water make this a quiet picture, similar to some of Lane's other late works.
Fitz Henry Lane December 19, 1804 to August 14, 1865 was an American painter and printmaker of a style that would later be called Luminism, for its use of pervasive light.
Born on in Gloucester, Massachusetts and from the time of his birth, Lane would be exposed to the sea and maritime life—a factor that obviously had a great impact his later choice of subject matter.
