About this work

This black-and-white image shows three small boats sailing close to a rocky shore. The water is calm, and the boats have tall, triangular sails. In the distance, there’s a faint outline of buildings or cliffs along the coast. The boats look simple but sturdy, built for fishing. The artist used a straightforward style with no extra details or shadows. If you like this style, check out *chiaroscuro* for another way to play with light and dark.
