A coastal landscape with rolling hills, scattered houses, and sailboats on a calm sea
A coastal landscape is depicted under a light sky. The upper third of the canvas shows a pale blue sky with soft, horizontal white cloud streaks. Below the sky, the calm sea stretches across the middle of the composition, rendered in varying shades of blue and turquoise, with lighter greens near the distant shore. Several small sailboats with reddish-brown sails are scattered across the water, appearing as tiny specks on the horizon. The lower two-thirds of the painting depict the undulating coastline. On the left, a steep, grassy hill slopes down towards the water, covered in patches of green and ochre. Further down the slope and extending into the midground are several small houses with reddish-brown roofs, nestled among clusters of green and brown trees and bushes. The foreground shows fields of dry, golden-brown grass, interspersed with areas of vibrant green foliage and darker brushstrokes. The overall palette consists of muted greens, earthy browns, and soft blues, with visible brushstrokes.
