On the Cliff is a 1847 unspecified by Constant Troyon, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting shows a cliffside scene with people and animals. A woman in a long skirt and a man in a hat are standing near the edge of the cliff, looking out at the water. In the distance, there are buildings and more people. The sky is cloudy and the overall mood is calm. The painting has a lot of texture and the brushstrokes are visible. The colors are muted, with lots of browns and grays. The cliff and the water are the main focus of the painting, with the people and animals adding a sense of scale and activity.
