Penclawdd, Gower, Glamorganshire is a 1940 watercolor by Mona Moore, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows a muddy shore with shallow water stretching toward the horizon. A few riders on horseback move across the wet ground, their figures small against the vast, open space. In the distance, a few boats float near the shore, and a church steeple rises above low buildings. The sky is pale with a hint of storm clouds, but the artist keeps the mood calm. The brushstrokes are loose, letting the light and color blend softly. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this painting in person.
