S.S. Brackett (mid-20th century), Double Locks on the Exeter Ship Canal, Devon. This watercolour on paper depicts a two-storey red brick building, identified as the Double Locks, situated on the water’s edge with its reflection mirrored in the blue foreground. To the left, a lock gate and bridge structure are visible under a bright sky with light cloud cover. The work is executed in a representational style using a palette of earthy reds, greens, and blues characteristic of mid-20th-century British landscape painting. It is signed S.S. BRACKETT in the lower-left corner. The painting is set within a cream-coloured mount and housed in a modern, polished silver-toned metal frame under glass.
