The Bay of Palma

John Copley 1875 - 1950

Summary

Looking down from a high viewpoint across a bay of water with a townscape in the background. A large gothic building, the cathedral of Palma de Mallorca, is visible to the left of this urban landscape. Some schematic sailboats can be seen on the bay. It stretches round to the right in the foreground, where bathers leap from a jetty into the sea while others swim or rest on a raft floating nearby. There are leaves and flowers in the immediate foreground.
