Seascape, Dieppe 1886

This watercolor painting, created by James Abbott McNeill Whistler in 1886, depicts a seascape of Dieppe, France. Whistler, known for his atmospheric paintings, captures the tranquility of the sea and sky, with the soft, wispy clouds reflecting on the water's surface. The subtle use of color and delicate brushstrokes create a sense of serenity and evoke a sense of the vastness of the ocean. "Seascape, Dieppe" exemplifies Whistler's artistic approach, which prioritized visual harmony and atmospheric effects over representational accuracy.
