Landscape, with meadow and stream is a 1767 watercolor by George Barret, Sr., a Rococo painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a quiet countryside scene. A winding stream cuts through a grassy meadow dotted with sheep. Tall trees line the horizon, and a small building sits in the distance. The sky is soft and pale, blending into the hills. The artist used light washes of color to create a peaceful mood. The watercolor looks loose and sketchy, almost like a quick note of the landscape. Next, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
