Watercolour on paper, the yachting scene retains a fair strength of colour still with good differentiation in the blues, there are some small scattered fox marks throughout the work, the other scene off Dartmouth is more faded with little sign of the blue of the sky but some pinks still in the sea, both housed in original titled giltwood mounts and under glass but in later cream stippled frames.
