Rural French coastal landscape, painted in thick impasto, showing the fishing harbour in Tal-Coat's home village of Doëlan-sur-Mer (Clohars-Carnoët) in Brittany. A block of dark green in the foreground represents leafy vegetation, pale blue glows from behind the trees represent a river, behind which lies many small white cottages painted in block colour, each with either a red or a blue roof. The sky is painted in green and blue with visible paint strokes across the sky. The sea extends in dark blue beneath the sky.
