This painting depicts a coastal scene, with seabirds flying overhead. The beach in the foreground transitions into a meadow dotted with wildflowers and a few soft trees under a muted gray sky. The colors have been preserved with a light varnish, keeping the painting in excellent condition for its age. The frame is more contemporary and also in good condition.
