Through Arches, Ed Willis Barnett, gelatin silver print
This painting represents a beach scene. Rocks stand on a sand bar in the middle ground, including a prominently placed arched rock at the center of the canvas. To the right of the arched rock, a woman sits on another rock within calm water and behind her appears to be the remains of a wrecked boat. Calm water spans the foreground of the painting, and distant waves are seen breaking on the ocean in the b ackground. Above the scene is a blue sky filled with distinct clouds. Touches of brown-yellow paint are also in the sky.
