The scene embodies a tranquil afternoon, where the calm, azure waters reflect a clear sky. The foreground is dominated by a lush, blossoming tree, its delicate white and pink flowers adding a bright contrast to the verdant greens around it. The rolling hills envelop the cove, draped in shades of rich pink and green, suggesting the vibrant growth of spring.Moret's use of vivid colors and bold strokes captures not just the physical beauty of the Breton landscape, but also the ephemeral qualities of light and air that make the scene come alive. Each brushstroke conveys a sense of movement — from the breezy sway of the foliage to the gentle ripples on the water's surface."L'Anse du Goulineau" is more than just a depiction of a place; it is an evocation of feeling and a vivid invitation to explore the natural world through Moret’s eyes.
