Lane & Sons sale followed the discovery of a large collection of the artist's works in a studio in St. Ives. As such, this painting is possibly a depiction of St. Ives, as Lever settled there from his native Australia, from 1900-1911 contributing to the artists colony, which was introduced to him by fellow Australian Louis Grier and Julius Olsson who opened a school for Landscape and Marine Painting in St Ives. He made his debut at the Royal Academy of Arts in 1904. After some time, he met Canadian/American artist Ernest Lawson who persuaded him to move to New York where he would continue to paint marine landscapes.
