About this work

Two mackerel lie on a sandy shore in the foreground, with shells and pebbles beside them. Behind them, sailing boats move across a choppy sea toward a coastline with cottages and drying laundry, under a heavy grey sky. The work is attributed to Arthur Devis and dated 1772, and its title places the scene on the Dorset shore near Bridport.
