The artwork titled “At sea” is a portrait created by Paul Delvaux in 1934. This piece is associated with the Expressionism art movement.
In the artwork, a nude woman is prominently positioned on the beach, her body gracefully reclining on the sand. Her striking red hair flows beneath her as she rests with her eyes closed, exuding a sense of tranquility and peacefulness. The background features a calm sea with gentle waves reaching the shoreline, under a sky filled with soft clouds, capturing a serene and contemplative atmosphere. The composition and expressive features highlight Delvaux’s ability to convey emotion and mood through the portrayal of the human form and the evocative seascape.
