From Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam:
Van Gogh dashed off this study quickly. For the crests of the waves, he even squeezed the paint directly out of the tube. The strong wind made painting difficult. Grains of sand were blown into the paint all over the canvas. Although this is one of his first oil paintings, Van Gogh's unique brushwork is already easy to recognise.
