La Promenade

Henri Edmond Cross · 1897 · 5-color lithograph on china paper ·  Accession ID  1963.11.86

The painting depicts a coastal scene. A rocky shore in warm tones of orange and purple is closest to the viewer, with two boats and a simple structure visible near the center of the image. The horizon line is high in the composition, with a range of mountains faintly visible against the sky past the large body of water. The water is a light blue, stretching from the rocky shore to the distant mountains. The paint has been applied with small dot-like brushstrokes of reds, oranges, blues, and purples.
