Tropical Bay [verso] 1936

"Tropical Bay [verso]" is a 1936 pencil sketch by American artist William Vaughn Cash. The artwork depicts a simple landscape with a bay and two hills, rendered in delicate lines. The composition is minimalist and focuses on the subtle details of the scene. This preliminary study, likely for a larger work, highlights Cash's exploration of natural forms and his interest in capturing the essence of a tropical landscape through simple means. The loose, gestural strokes give the work a sense of spontaneity and informality, characteristic of Cash's artistic approach.
