To right of the surf line, dunes orrocky mounds begin, rising high over the horizon andblotting out the view of the sea,—outpo^s of risingland which is sugge^ed at the boundary of the pidlureon the right. These mounds are full of delicate color,—gray, buff, ironsru^, green of different tones, — andshort bushes, leaning under habitual wind^pressure,are seen on the sea sides of the mounds, rising overtheir tops. The foreground, sloping from the right andaround the dunes toward the brief surf line, is a motstling of soft verdure with brown touches, and here andthere an intermingling of the gray foundation sand.The sea being shut out from the view, beyond thedunes, yet glimpsed farther away at the left, there isan atmosphere and a feeling of peace and of a quietretreat, though in the open and near the boundlessocean. A Newport subject probably painted in the late nineties.Signed at the lower right, H. D. Martin.COLLECTION OF GEORGE A. HEARN. ESQ. 44
