omschrijvingA rapidly executed sketch showing the effects of waves close to the Cornish coast at Sennen Cove. The painting is taken from a low perspective so that the waves seem on the same eye level as the viewer. Everett has applied a thick layer of paint to show waves coming ashore, painting the underside of each wave with thick bands of colour. The sky has been boldly and rapidly treated with large sweeps of colour. Despite the sketchy quality of the image, it is full of movement and dramatic effect. Following the end of World War I, Everett went to Helston in Cornwall from 28 January 1919. He then moved on to Porthleven before renting a studio at Sennen. He selected it for its good view of the sea and stayed there until 11 May. The painting is inscribed 'Sennen' verso.
