Sketchbook, page 94: Seascape

Ernest Meissonier

Cleveland Museum of Art

A sketch of a seascape drawn in pencil on a piece of paper. The paper is off-white and has a rough texture. A seascape with several sailboats and a pier drawn on it. The pier is on the left side. The boats are scattered across the water, some closer to the pier and others further out. The background shows a horizon line with what appears to be a coastline or landmass in the distance. The overall effect is one of a simple yet evocative sketch that captures the essence of a seaside scene.
