About the piece

Painted around 1910, Thomas Alexander Harrison’s 'Moonrise' is a masterful example of Tonalism, focusing on the atmospheric effects of light and color. The composition features a luminous moon hanging over a vast, quiet sea, with soft pink-tinged clouds and a delicate reflection shimmering on the wet sand of the shore.
