About the piece
This 1877 oil study by Danish master Peder Severin Krøyer captures the rugged beauty of the French coast at St. Malo. The work features a low-tide beach with dark rocks in the foreground, leading toward a distant stone fortress perched on a rocky outcrop under a vast, cloud-filled sky illuminated by a pale, filtered light.
