About this work

This painting shows a city street with a big white church in the middle. The church has a tall, pointed roof and arched windows. People walk down the street—some carry umbrellas, and trees with bare branches line the side. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a rough, textured look. This technique is called *impasto*, where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost feel the strokes. Next, look up *impasto* to see how artists use it to add depth and texture to their work.
