The artwork titled “Seascape” was created by the artist David James in the year 1885. This piece belongs to the Realism art movement and falls within the marina genre.
The artwork beautifully captures the essence of a rocky seashore, with the vast, undulating sea in the foreground extending toward the horizon. The waves are depicted with meticulous detail, portraying a rhythmic dance as they crash against the rugged cliffs and large boulders protruding from the water. The coastline is rendered with earthy tones, highlighting the textured rock formations and the greenish tint along the hilly terrain. A serene sky with scattered clouds envelops the scene, contributing to the overall tranquil yet powerful atmosphere of the seascape. Seabirds can be seen hovering above the waves, adding an element of life and movement to the painting.
