Sentinels is a 1917 oil by Anne Bremer, a Art Nouveau work, held at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a rugged, rocky cliffside with three tall, thin trees in the foreground. The trees are bare except for some green leaves at the top. The cliff drops off to the left, and the sea is visible in the distance. The sky is light and hazy. The trees are painted in shades of brown and gray, with some green at the top. The rocks are light-colored and rough-looking. The sea is a deep blue, and the sky is a pale blue-gray. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and atmosphere.
