Joseph Kleitsch is one of the most highly revered artists who lived and painted in Laguna Beach during  the 1920s.  His paintings of Southern California are some of the most sought after by collectors and museums.  In this work, the  masterful artistry unique to Joseph Kleitsch illuminate the shimmering sea and alluring light of dusk.  Here the energetic imaginative quality of the artist is unsurpassed. 

Anthony Anderson, also an art critic for the "Los Angeles Times" in 1922, was quoted as saying: "Kleitsch has discovered more varieties of loveliness in Laguna Beach than any other artist...he explored little intimate places, he painted quaint old streets with towering eucalyptus, the gardens rioting with bloom, and he introduced feminine figures straying through these charming purlieus...".
