About the piece
Created in 1918, Maurice Prendergast's 'Picnic by the Inlet' showcases the artist's signature post-impressionist style, using mosaic-like brushstrokes to build a scene of leisurely outdoor life. The composition features a group of figures in vibrant blue, purple, and white dresses, framed by the lush foliage of a sprawling tree and the shimmering blue waters of a coastal landscape.
