About the piece

This 1855 watercolor by David Cox captures the rugged grandeur of Penmanmawr on the North Wales coast. Through loose, expressive brushwork, Cox conveys the moody atmosphere of the British landscape, contrasting the deep earth tones of the mountains against a swirling, cloud-filled sky and a sliver of distant blue sea.
