<div><font face=Lato size=3 color="#191919"><em>The Road to the Harbor, Gloucester, Massachusetts</em> is a vibrant and characteristically bold example of Jane Peterson’s celebrated views of the Massachusetts coast, a subject that remains among the most sought after in her work. Previously held in the collection of the artist and her estate, the painting reflects the period when Peterson was producing her finest New England scenes, distilling the atmosphere and color of Gloucester with a confident and expressive hand.

The Road to the Harbor, Gloucester, Massachusetts es un ejemplo vibrante y característicamente audaz de las célebres vistas de la costa de Massachusetts de Jane Peterson, un tema que sigue siendo uno de los más buscados en su obra. Anteriormente parte de la colección de la artista y su patrimonio, la pintura refleja el periodo en el que Peterson producía sus mejores escenas de Nueva Inglaterra, destilando la atmósfera y el color de Gloucester con una mano segura y expresiva. Gloucester era uno de sus temas más queridos, y pinturas comparables de la zona han superado las expectativas en las subastas, a menudo duplicando con creces sus estimaciones más altas, lo que subraya tanto el atractivo del tema como el valor competitivo de la presente obra.


 


Este gran lienzo captura una tranquila tarde costera, con un camino de tierra que conduce al puerto de Gloucester, como sugiere el título. Peterson utiliza colores saturados y pinceladas amplias y vivaces para animar la escena, desde los toques de azul en los tejados hasta el juego cambiante del azul y el gris en el cielo que se retira, lo que sugiere un momento justo después de la lluvia. La pintura guarda una estrecha relación con otras obras de Gloucester que se encuentran en importantes colecciones de museos, como Old Road, Gloucester, en el Museo de Bellas Artes de Virginia.





Peterson era conocida por elegir temas que iban más allá de las expectativas convencionales para las mujeres artistas de su época, favoreciendo las escenas callejeras, los viajes, la vida pública e incluso las experiencias bélicas. The Road to the Harbor, Gloucester, Massachusetts encarna este espíritu abierto al exterior, revelando su capacidad para transformar los caminos costeros cotidianos en escenas de vívida inmediatez y encanto perdurable.
