Moore's artistic prowess is evident in the intricate details and vibrant colors of this work. The drawing is executed primarily in ink and watercolor on paper, with the artist's deft hand producing a lifelike depiction of the pebbled shoreline, the crashing waves, and the colorful umbrellas and bathing machines that line the beach. The atmospheric rendering of the sky, with its swirling clouds and the sun setting in the distance, adds an element of drama and depth to the scene.
