Fishermen in a Dory - Framed Watercolor Painting

This is a framed watercolor painting on paper, depicting two fishermen in a traditional wooden dory or rowing boat near a lush, wooded shoreline. The composition features a foreground of calm, reflective water where the boat's shadow is visible, a middle ground showing the brown and teal-colored boats with figures, and a background of dense green trees under an amber-tinted sky. The artwork is signed in the lower right corner, appearing to read 'Stone' followed by the date '74', suggesting it was created in 1974. The painting is housed in a decorative double-layered frame: a thin inner gold-toned fillet and a larger outer frame with a dark wood-grain or faux-finish texture. The piece is set behind glass with an off-white mat. Regarding condition, there is a visible glare on the glass surface from the photography lighting. The paper appears to have some slight yellowing or toning consistent with its 1970s age, though the colors remain fairly vibrant. The matting shows some minor darkening near the edges. The brushwork demonstrates a practiced hand, utilizing wet-on-dry techniques for the tree foliage and fine line work for the oars and rigging, indicating professional-level craftsmanship for the period.
