La Rochelle is a 1927 unspecified by Theodor Pallady, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This sketch shows a waterfront scene with two sailboats and a simple building behind them. The boats have tall masts and bright yellow sails, while the building has blank windows and a flat roof. The water is calm, with just a few wavy lines at the bottom. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to keep things rough and sketchy. The boats and building are drawn in a way that feels more like a quick note than a finished picture. If you like this style, check out the technique: impasto.
