A surprisingly vibrant and contemporary composition from Maryland listed artist Grace Turnbull (b. 1880- d. 1976). Born into a prominent Baltimore family, and educated at the Maryland Institute College of Art, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Art Students League of New York.

This particular piece is unsigned, but was a part of her estate sale. It was likely painted during her stay in Windwardside, Saba, Dutch West Indies in 1913.
