The present work depicts a view by Greenock, a port on the west coast of Scotland. Robert Salmon primarily lived in Scotland from 1811 to 1822, and the present work dates to his brief return to Greenock in late 1825 before his return to London by the end of 1826. According to John Wilmerding, Salmon "found more subjects on the west coast of Scotland in and around Firth of Clyde than anywhere else." (American Marine Painting, New York, 1987, p. 92) Another work by Salmon depicting this location is in the collection of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museo Nacional in Madrid.
