This gouache, one of the artist’s masterpieces, is confusing to the point of being strange.  From the first floor window of a house in the village of Lanmarc’h, Filiger has huge fields sloping gently down to the sea. Between Kerrou beach on the right, and Bellangenet beach on the left, a rocky promontory juts out into the sea.  At its end a customs officer’s house has been built.  To the left, a large tree, deformed by westerly winds, rises from the shrubbery.
