Landscape with Bakehouse is a 1800 watercolor by John Sell Cotman, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows a small stone house with a tall chimney. It’s set in a rocky valley with a few people walking near a fence. The sky is dark, and the house looks old and weathered. The artist focused on the rough textures of the rocks and the house’s worn walls. This style was common in the Romanticism movement. Look up Romanticism to see more works like this one.
