About this work

This painting shows a stone bridge with a single arch over a dark, calm body of water. On the left side, a red brick building with tall windows stands behind bare trees with yellowish leaves. The bridge has a low wall, and a few people are scattered along it, some sitting, others walking. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. The colors are warm and muted, focusing on earthy tones with pops of green in the water. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
