About this work

This painting shows a rocky coastline with jagged cliffs on the left. The waves crash against the shore, and the water looks rough. In the distance, there’s a flat, open landscape with a few small buildings and a lone white tower. The artist used thick, textured brushstrokes to show the rough texture of the rocks and cliffs. The light and dark areas create a sense of depth, especially on the cliffs. Try looking up *chiaroscuro* next to see how light and shadow work in paintings.
