While the site in this watercolor cannot be identified, it was probably painted in Newport or Middletown, Rhode Island. The concentration on broad surface masses and the interplay of strong geometries reveal La Farge’s appreciation of Japanese design principles. The artist brought his exceptional gifts as a colorist to the portrayal of the clouds, sea, and sand—three apparently simple elements, each composed with a complex palette of subtle variegated colors.
