San Gimignano, Near Siena, Italy is a 1880 watercolor by Fulleylove, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows an old stone tower with arched windows and a crumbling wall. Below, a few tiny figures walk near the base. Two tall, dark trees stand in front of a distant town with soft, hazy buildings. The sky is pale with light clouds, and the hills fade into a warm, misty blue. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to capture the light and mood. The colors are muted, blending the old stone with the sky.
