This coastal scene, possibly on the Riviera, has an air of tranquillity about it. A lone figure in red sitting in quiet contemplation. The scene is dominated by a majestic tree colourfully depicted with foliage in a variety of shades of green. The shadow being cast is typically Impressionistic. Knighton-Hammond has executed this composition on the spot and he has exploited his ability in watercolours to convey light and space in his clear distinctive style.
