EDITORS COMMENTS

Painted with tempera on gesso prepared panel, this masterpiece transports us back to the early twentieth century.

The vibrant yellow hues blend harmoniously with the natural space surrounding it. With no human presence in sight, we are left to marvel at the untouched shoreline and expansive sea. Wadsworth's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. The artist skillfully depicts a large group of objects resembling machinery or automata by the waterway. This industrial element adds an intriguing contrast against the serene backdrop of Normandy.

As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness a snapshot from history - a moment frozen forever in early 20th-century England. The sky above appears vast and endless, mirroring our own contemplation as we immerse ourselves in Wadsworth's unique vision. This print serves as a testament to Wadsworth's talent as both a British and American artist who effortlessly captured nature's allure while infusing it with his distinctive style.
