Schooled in the European academic tradition, Grant brought to his canvasses an intelligent and disciplined feeling for composition, form and color, all elements on display in Harbor Court, Gloucester, Massachusetts. The scene captures an unusual vantage point looking down the stairway of Herrick Court to the waters of the Inner Harbor’s North Channel, with the hills of East Gloucester on the horizon.
