# On the Beach, No. 3, in The Sea

Maurice Prendergast painted this in about 1915–18, aged 57. It is now at the Cleveland Museum of Art.

From the museum's label:

> Prendergast developed a distinctive painting style featuring rounded patches of thickly applied color. Like many of his works, On the Beach, No. 3 visually approximates a densely woven tapestry.
