untitled (Marine)

Eugène Béjot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a seaside scene with a wooden pier extending into calm waters. A lighthouse is visible on a rocky outcrop at the horizon, and a sailboat sails in the distance. The brushstrokes are fine, with detailed rendering of the pier and lighthouse. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of sepia. The beach is strewn with rocks and driftwood, leading towards the pier and the water beyond.
