La Plage
Walter Richard Sickert 1860 - 1942
Summary
A view out to sea from a Dieppe beach, looking across calm waters towards small boats, barely visible on the horizon. An old wooden breakwater runs into the sea on the left, and a group of briefly painted figures are seated on the sand and paddling in the surrounding water.
