La Falaise: Baie de Saint-Malo (The Cliff: Saint-Malo Bay)

Félix-Hilaire Buhot

National Gallery of Art

This etching depicts a coastal scene with a wide view. The horizon line separates the sky from the sea. In the distance, small figures are suggested. The style uses fine lines and has a sketch-like quality. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of gray and brown. The rocky coastline slopes towards the water, showing rough textures. The sky features textured clouds.
