About the piece

Painted in 1908, this luminous work by Croatian master Vlaho Bukovac captures a serene moment by the shore. Using a delicate, pointillist-influenced technique, Bukovac renders the masterful interplay of light on the figure's draped white cloth and the rugged, cool-toned textures of the coastal rocks.
