Mary Alberta Cleland was a Canadian impressionist painter who specialized in oil and watercolour landscapes and pastel portraits. Harbour Study exhibits Cleland’s loose style with a focus on capturing light and shadow rather than precise details. The hazy atmosphere and the use of a muted color scheme dominated by blues, purples, and grays, effectively conveys the mood of a harbor scene at dusk or dawn.
