The present work depicts a view of the Thimble Islands, located off the coast of Branford, Connecticut, and is one of three known canvases produced by Martin Johnson Heade following his visit to the state in the summer of 1875. In this serene scene, Heade adopts a southward view across Long Island Sound, looking toward Long Island. According to Karen E. Quinn, "Thimble Islands near New Haven...and Thimble Island, about 1875-76 [Shelburne Museum, Vermont], depict low tide; in these works Heade contrasted dark rocks in the foreground to the subtly lit sky, and boats dot the horizon." ("Seascapes," in T.E. Stebbins, Jr., ed., Martin Johnson Heade, exhibition catalogue, Boston, Massachusetts, 1999, p. 17). Indeed, the subtle gradations of light in the sky are carefully reflected in the water, demonstrating Heade's mastery of nature's ephemeral qualities.
