This watercolor shows a quiet coastal town nestled between rolling hills and a calm bay. Ships dot the water, and the buildings cluster tightly near the shore, with a few trees dotting the green slopes. The sky is soft and pale, blending into the distant mountains. The artist used light washes of color to keep everything gentle and airy, almost like a sketch. The water looks still, and the hills fade into the horizon without sharp lines. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
