This 1960 original watercolor on paper by prominent New Zealand artist Rita Angus (1908-1970) features a rugged, stratified cliff face overlooking a shoreline. The composition utilizes Angus's characteristically rhythmic and structured approach to the natural world, with the rock formations rendered in tiered washes of mauve, slate grey, and ochre. Fine horizontal lines of white highlight indicate the movement of water or light reflecting off the lower terrain. The work reflects her deep connection to the New Zealand landscape and her ability to translate complex geological forms into a balanced, modernist aesthetic. The piece is signed and dated "Rita Angus / 60" in the lower right corner.
