About this work

This painting shows a rough wooden house with peeling walls. Inside, a small animal—maybe a goat—stands near a table covered in cloths and a few hanging fabrics. The room looks old, with a dark corner and a small window letting in dim light. The artist used thick brushstrokes to show texture, especially on the walls and fabrics. The lighting is uneven, making some areas bright and others shadowy. Next, look up impasto to see how artists use paint thickness like this.
