The Bay, Nova Scotia 

This black and white landscape drawing, “The Bay, Nova Scotia”, depicts a picturesque scene of rolling hills, a small building, and a vast body of water. George Luks, a prominent American painter known for his bold brushwork and expressive style, captures the essence of the landscape with loose, gestural strokes that evoke the feeling of a breezy day. The drawing highlights Luks's ability to simplify forms while maintaining visual impact, characteristic of his Impressionistic approach.
