C Hjalmar Amundsen's 'Boats at Dock' is a Mid-20th Century Oil on Canvas painting depicting a sailing vessel docked next to a couple of wharf buildings. The colors are rich values of reds, browns, blues, greens and yellows. A lone human figure stands on the dock next to the boat. The smoke billowing from the chimney on the far building within the scene indicates cooler weather. The yellow area in the upper right indicates sunlight, but it's uncertain if it's a sunrise or sunset. The compositional structure of buildings and dock at the right side of the work and foreground balance the water to the left.
C Hjalmar "Cappy" Amundsen was an American painter born in 1911 in New York City. Amundsen died in 2001.
