"Brighton Pier" by Fred Yates encapsulates the lively atmosphere of a day at the beach. His trademark vivid colour scheme and thick, textured impasto strokes are used in the painting.

People in warm clothes are seen strolling, conversing, leaning over the pier's edge, and taking in the scenery in this colourful scene.
There is a sense of activity as the sea below glows with movement and tiny boats dot the water. Brighton Pier's charm and busy atmosphere are brought to life by Fred’s inimitable style, which gives it an upbeat yet nostalgic feel.
