A still bay, with sailboats at rest under a sky given over to sunrise or sunset, is the scene in this color halftone. It reproduces a painting by Edwin Lamasure and was issued by Brown & Bigelow of St. Paul, a firm that produced large runs of art prints for American homes. Halftone printing let publishers copy paintings in color at low cost, so scenes like this reached far more households than the original canvas could. Dating to about 1910, it reflects a period when such prints hung in parlors and calendars across the country.
