Nautical Scene
This small painting is probably an earlier work from Robert Fort’s career. Two boats are moored at a dock. In the background we see a building and a sailboat. Mr. Fort was an avid amateur sailor and careful rendering shows his knowledge of maritime life. The treatment of the water is reminiscent of the work of Ox-Bow Summer School of Painting founder Frederick Fursman, but there is no record that the two ever worked together.
