• Depictions of the sea and Northern German landscapes, in particular of his native Seebüll in Holstein, are found throughout Emil Nolde"s entire oeuvre.
• In the present work, the artist breaks up the flat blue-gray color scheme with fine hatched lines and the motifs of small steamships emitting dark smoke.
• Atmospheric composition: the sloping dunes allow only a glimpse of the vast sea and the cloudy sky, seeming to offer the painter protection from wind and storms
