This large size painting originated around 1900. Shown is the view of a harbor. The dark clouds of the rising thunderstorm still let some sun rays pass through, which are reflecting on the moving water surface. Despite the stormy weather there is lively traffic on the open sea.

The painting is barely legible signed lower left ‘H. Ri…t (?)’. It is in age-appropriate condition with signs of age and wear. The canvas is relined, it was partially somewhat thinned out. Some retouching visible, the surface is overall slightly browned. The painting measures 68 x 105 cm, the framed dimensions are 84 x 120 cm.
