Study is a 1870 watercolor by Alfred East, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a small boat floating on calm water, with two people inside. In the background, a sailboat with tall masts glides near the shore. The colors are soft and muted, with light gray and pale blue tones blending together. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the scene a dreamy, unfinished look. This style was common in watercolors of the time. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
