About this work

This painting shows a quiet countryside scene. In the foreground, three tall trees stand—two with green leaves and one turning reddish-brown. Behind them, a small white house with a red roof sits near a field. Farther back, rolling hills stretch under a partly cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. This style is called *impasto*, where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost feel the strokes. Try searching for impasto to see how other artists used this technique.
