‘SHIPPERS DOCK’ BY BLANCHE HENDERSON (1960)
CONTACT US HERE ABOUT THIS ITEM.
A confidently middle-brow work from talented amateur BLANCHE HENDERSON depicting a tranquil late-morning scene at a shippers’ marina, observed through the metaphorical “mists” of drying cargo nets. A lone straggler with a set red sail is featured against a backdrop of dock buildings. This oil-on-canvas original captures a quiet moment of subtle maritime activity, embodying a classic mid-century aesthetic—and would contribute authentic flavor to any modern American interior. Signed and dated by the artist in the lower right-hand corner and housed in a vintage wormwood frame. Sight dimensions: 18" x 36".
