A summer scene centred on a woman walking along the surf of a bright blue beach. The brushstrokes are broad and expressive, giving the painting a lively and energetic look. The woman wears a colourful dress with horizontal stripes in a range of hues - yellow, red, blue, orange and green - that seem to dance along with the wind. Her large hat with similar colours enhances the summery feeling of freedom and carefree fun.
The horizon is sleek and calm, while the sky has an almost abstract structure with dramatic transitions between white and blue. What is striking is the way the light reflects off the sand and how the use of colour evokes a sense of warmth. Unique is the combination of figuration and abstraction; the woman is clearly recognisable, but the surroundings and her clothing are painted rather suggestively. This creates a balance between realism and emotion. The absence of facial details enhances the universality of the scene - it could be anyone, at any moment of inner peace.
