Whalsay Bay, with a Girl in White is a 1924 oil by John Quinton Pringle, a Impressionism work, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
This painting shows a young girl in a white dress standing on a rocky beach. The girl has dark hair and is looking down, with her hands behind her back. The beach is covered in small rocks and pebbles, and the sea is calm and blue in the background. The girl's white dress stands out against the more muted colors of the beach and sea. The painting's style is impressionistic, with visible brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the play of light on the water and the girl's dress. The artist of this painting is John Quinton Pringle.
John Quinton Pringle (13 December 1864 – 25 April 1925) was a Scottish painter, influenced by Jules Bastien-Lepage and associated with the Glasgow Boys.
