Stage Fort across Gloucester Harbor is a mid 19th century painting by American artist Fitz Henry Lane.
The painting is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York city.
[1] Done in oil on canvas, the work depicts the Stage Fort in Gloucester, Massachusetts, once a military installation and now in Stage Fort Park.
The detailed foreground links to the sparely rendered background via the curving spit of land in a style typical of Lane's later work.
