This painting shows a tall, ornate building with arched windows and dark shutters. The lower half reflects in wavy water, blurring the lines between the structure and its mirror. The colors are muted—pale blues, grays, and earthy browns—with a few red accents on the shutters and roof. The building’s reflection makes it look like it’s floating, almost ghostly. The brushstrokes are thick in places, giving the water a textured, almost liquid feel. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
