While Maurice Braun is best known for his scenes of inland San Diego County, he also painted frequently along the coast - Mission Bay, Point Loma, Coronado and La Jolla. This work, painted off the La Jolla coast, is a conventional yet beautifully painted marine that accurately records the play of the intense sunlight on the water and the action of the waves.
