Farm and Trees

About this work

This painting shows a quiet countryside scene with a few buildings and trees. The colors are mostly soft grays and browns, with a little yellow and green for the leaves. Two horses are grazing near a fence in the lower right corner. The artist used loose, sketchy brushstrokes to capture the scene quickly. It looks like they were painting outdoors, focusing on light and shadow rather than details. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
