Edward Hopper

(Rocks and Cove)
1929

A watercolor painting depicting a rocky seaside landscape with a clear blue sky above and a calm blue sea beyond. The foreground is dominated by warm-toned rocks in shades of orange, brown, and beige, with shadows adding depth to the scene. In the middle ground, the sea meets a distant landmass covered with patches of greenery.
