About this work

This painting shows a messy, rough city scene with lumpy buildings. The colors are mostly gray, white, and red, with some yellow and blue mixed in. Brushstrokes are thick and uneven, making the shapes look almost like they’re stacked on top of each other. The buildings have steep roofs and look like they’re in a crowded area, but the details are blurred. The way the paint is applied makes it feel like the scene is half-finished or seen through a haze. If you like this style, look up impasto.
