About this work

This painting shows a large house with a sloped red roof, surrounded by tall, dark trees. In front, a winding path leads through a grassy area with a small bridge over a stream. The sky is bright blue, and the brushstrokes are thick and visible, especially on the trees and ground. The artist used bold strokes to show texture, making the scene feel lively. The house looks quiet but stands out against the wild greenery. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
