Summary

Impressionistic, idyllic view down a steep hillside towards Runswick Bay in Yorkshire. There are blossoming trees in the right foreground, with white seafront cottages on left built into the hill, with a calm sea beyond. The scene is predominantly depicted in pastel shades, with patched paintwork and small, directional lines representing the sea and sky section.
