The painting is called Scene on the South Coast of England. It was made in the 19th century. The artist used a mix of black chalk, gray wash, and white on green paper to create it. This mix of materials is interesting because it allows for a range of tones and textures. The use of green paper as a base is also notable, as it can affect the overall mood of the piece. Check out the movement: Romanticism.
