Shore Beneath the Ridge
Two wide views balance the fixed mass of land against small bodies at the moving waterline.
The first frame follows a pale beach toward a dark, steep-sided ridge beneath blue clouds. Small bathers gather near its base.
The second opens to broad sea and sky, placing a shorter figure between two taller people as all three face the breaking waves.
