About the piece
Created in 1910, this watercolor and colored pencil work by Belgian artist Léon Spilliaert showcases his signature atmospheric and minimalist style. Two fisherwomen are depicted as silhouettes against a pale sky, standing high upon a massive stone quay that dominates the composition, while the mast of a fishing boat peeks into the frame from below.
