Wait. “The city?” Isn’t fishing at sea?

A calm and soothing and beautiful space, created so artistically. Thank you. We need more soothing spaces like this right now.

Why would a fisherman’s wife sit gazing at the sea, waiting for her husband to return from the city?

She could be in a canal or harbor, perhaps the husband took his boat to the city to sell his fish? The colors and mood still show her yearning for him to return safely and hurry now.

Maybe she lived in Venice, maybe her husband went to pay for his fishing license, maybe he had stayed out all night…the lure of the city lights.

Maybe she knew about the red light district in Amersterdam and she is waiting, waiting to surprise him, thinking, “if he looks guilty when he sees me, that’s it, I’m tossing him overboard where he can swim with the fishes.”

Do u appraise paintings? I have inherited one that has no artist signature. Looking to sell it.

No I do not. Try Bonhams. They will either do it or refer you to a local resource

Let’s rename this. Woman who spends her time cooking, cleaning and tending to her husband waits for someone who gets to go out on adventures as she sits home in a domestic prison.
