Edward Hopper

(The Dories, Ogunquit)
1914

A painting depicting a serene coastal scene with several white boats floating on the blue water near a rocky shoreline. The coastline is dotted with greenery and a few buildings in the distance under a sky with wispy clouds. The foreground shows a shadowed rocky outcrop, and the water transitions from dark blue in the foreground to lighter shades near the horizon.
