This is a late work by Nevinson. It is far less radical and confrontational than his paintings from the time of the First World War. It still incorporates some of the technical innovations of his earlier work, such as the bold, linear design and radically reduced range of colours; but with the imagery of picturesque cottages and sailing ships, a gentler mood prevails.
