About this work

The painting depicts a serene ocean scene with three figures in the water. The central figure, a man with long hair, stands with his arms raised, while two women are partially submerged in the water to his left. The ocean's surface is dotted with rocks, and the sky above is a soft blend of pink and grey hues. In the background, two additional figures sit on rocks, adding to the tranquil atmosphere of the scene. The overall mood of the painting is one of calmness and serenity. This painting is part of the collection at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
