medium: Oil paints on canvas
I find this piece interesting because light is very important to it, and tone helps to bring the scene to life and make it seem tranquil

Nocturne in Blue and Gold: Old Battersea Bridge (1872-1875)

I like how the artist has used the gold oil pastel to create the lights and

the reflection of the lights on the sea makes the painting look even more realistic.
