Shrimp boats, Great Yarmouth
Item Information
- Title:
- Shrimp boats, Great Yarmouth
- Description:
-
Sailing boats lie moored in a diagonal line along a quay bordered on the left by old gabled houses under which one man sits, and two, with a dog, stand. Between the sails the Town Hall is seen, in the middle distance of the plate, and on the right, across the water, is Jewson's wharf. The middle line of this work has been so far burnished out that the resemblance to the "S" is no longer evident. The lower outline of a distant barge under Jewson's wharf has been reduced, so as not to appear as a continuous line through the furled sail of the boat in front of it.
