NB:
The catalogue of the 1904 exhibition of The Royal Canadian Academy of Arts Official Catalogue of Exhibits for the art exhibitions at the St. Louis World's Fair list an exhibited picture by Hammond, no. 84, Fishing boats, Bay of Fundy and no. 42 Fishing Boats, Bay of Fundy., respectively. These titles are identical to the present oil painting, which is titled by the artist on the verso. A selection of pictures at the St. Louis World's Fair would subsequently show at the Art Association of Montreal in January 1905. A review of this exhibition from the Montreal Star ("Canadian Art Exhibit is now on View Here", 7 January 1905) describes, "Mr. Hammond's five pictures of land and water are bright, sunny pictures, with one particularly well executed, a Gaspereaux fishing fleet in early morning."
