Jetty at Low Tide (The Water Pier) 1901

Joseph DeCamp's "Jetty at Low Tide (The Water Pier)," painted in 1901, captures a serene moment of calm on a waterfront. The painting features a wooden jetty extending into the water, its weathered pilings standing tall against the backdrop of a quiet town. The water's surface reflects the soft light of the sky, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The muted color palette, with hues of brown, blue, and green, further reinforces the sense of tranquility. DeCamp's Impressionistic style emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow, capturing the fleeting beauty of this idyllic scene. The painting is a testament to DeCamp's ability to capture the beauty of everyday moments in a refined and evocative manner.
