This captivating print captures the essence of Stornoway Harbour through the powerful strokes and vivid contrasts typical of Expressionism. The composition draws the viewer's gaze to a bold, moored vessel, its dark hull a stark element against the shimmering waters. The reflection of the boat, crafted with broad, gestural strokes, dances across the water's surface, adding to the impression of gentle movement.

Behind the primary subject, a line of harbour-side houses stands in a resolute row. Their muted tones, ranging from stony greys to a solitary splash of warming yellow, suggest the unique character of Scottish coastal architecture. These buildings, with their unadorned facades and slightly varying rooflines, exude a sense of quiet endurance against the maritime elements.

The sky, awash with a palette of soft greys and creams, imparts a feeling of tranquillity, while strategically placed seabirds animate the scene, their flight adding a dynamic quality. The restrained use of colour highlights the artist's intent to convey mood over the minute detail, inviting viewers to experience the harbour's atmosphere rather than its precise replication.

This print is an ode to the rugged beauty of Scotland's coastal towns, a piece that will undoubtedly evoke contemplation and admiration in any space it adorns.
