Arredores de São Paulo (atribuído) is a 1900 oil by Georges Capgras, a Impressionism work, depicting Architecture, held at Pinacoteca de São Paulo.
This painting depicts a serene scene of a horse standing in front of a small, rustic building. The horse is brown and has a saddle on its back, while the building appears to be made of stone or brick with a thatched roof. In the background, there are trees and a few other buildings, but they are not clearly defined. The painting is done in oil paint and features a mix of earthy tones, with shades of brown, green, and blue dominating the palette. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured look.
