Watercolor by G. Seyetaski [1960]; watercolor
This watercolor by an unidentified artist depicts a coastal landscape with a rocky shoreline. The geometric jumble of rocks is depicted using non-traditional colors, such as pink, purple and lime green, which gives the piece an abstract quality and separates it from a more traditional landscape scene. The gradations of color achievable by using watercolors help to create an atmospheric mood, as the rocks seem to fade into the dark wash of the ocean. No additional information is known about the artist or when the piece came into the Cary Library collection.
