Giltar Point, near Tenby is a 1871 watercolor by Thomas Brittain Vacher, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a rocky coastline with steep cliffs on the left. The water is calm, stretching far to a distant shore. The hills are dry and covered in patches of green and yellow plants. The sky is barely there—just a pale line at the top. The artist used soft, light colors to show how the light hits the rocks and water. It looks like they painted it outside, capturing the real colors and shapes. Look up Thomas Brittain Vacher to see more of his landscapes.
