Trouville-sur-Mer

Randolph Caldecott

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a landscape view from a slight elevation. A tree trunk rises on the right side. There are faint horizontal lines in the distance. The sketching is light and uncomplicated, with delicate and loose lines suggesting trees and vegetation. The palette is monochrome, reflecting pencil on paper. A few trees are lightly outlined close by. The terrain extends towards the horizon with few features, creating a sense of calm and open space.
