Artist, American, 1889 - 1946

The image shows a rocky coastline with a stormy sea. The horizon is low, obscured by crashing waves. Figures in heavy garments brace against the wind. The artwork is dynamic, with expressive brushstrokes depicting movement and energy in the waves and sky. The color palette is monochromatic, emphasizing the starkness with shades of gray and black for strong contrasts.
