About the piece
Painted in 1861 by Samuel Bough, this dynamic oil painting depicts the busy harbor of Newhaven. The scene is filled with meticulously rendered figures—fishermen and fishwives—working alongside sailboats with heavy, rust-colored sails, all set against a luminous, cloud-swept sky that masterfully captures the coastal light of Scotland.
