This painting shows rough, jagged rocks in the foreground. A thin river cuts through them, with more hills and land in the background. The colors are mostly browns, blues, and whites, with quick, loose brushstrokes everywhere. The artist used watercolor, which lets the paper show through in spots. That gives it a light, sketchy feel. Look up Henry Tonks to see more of his work.
