One of the simplest ways to describe an object is by depicting its silhouette. The advantage of this is that, if you accurately describe the outside edge of the shape, little or no details are necessary in the interior of the shape. You can recognize a dog, a boat or a vase of flowers merely by its silhouette.
"Morning at Roosting Rock" was painted very early one morning when the sun was barely up, leaving the rock and its gulls in silhouette against a blinding sea and sky.
