The artwork in question is titled “Rocky Beach, Appledore”, created by the artist Childe Hassam in the year 1913. This piece, which belongs to the Impressionism art movement, falls within the genre of landscape painting.
The artwork captures a rugged coastal scene, dominated by an expansive array of rocks scattered across the beach. The painting employs a vivid palette with a strong emphasis on blues and greens, representing both the rocks and the surrounding vegetation. The brushstrokes are characteristic of the Impressionist style, appearing loose and dynamic, lending a textured and almost tactile quality to the rocks. In the background, a few figures are seen walking, providing a sense of scale and depth to the composition. The overall mood of the artwork is serene yet wild, evocative of the undisturbed beauty of nature.
