Sketchbook, The Dells, N° 127, page 158 & 159: Coastal Landscape with Figures

Maurice Prendergast

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a sketchbook spread with a watercolour painting. The painting depicts a rocky coastal landscape with a group of people on the shore and in the water. The shore has a steep incline with large brown and grey rocks. People are sitting and standing on the shore. The people are dressed in casual clothing in various colours. The water is blue-green with some ripples. In the background, there are trees, a few buildings with red roofs, and a blue sky with white clouds. A small boat is in the water near the shore. The overall style of the painting is impressionistic.
