This painting shows a simple, weathered wooden house with a sloped roof. The walls are rough, and the paint is faded in spots. A bare tree stands in front, its branches twisted against a pale, cloudy sky. The ground looks dry, with patches of grass and a hint of mud near the house. The artist used thick brushstrokes to show texture, especially on the roof and walls. The colors are muted, mostly earthy browns and grays, with a touch of green in the shadows. Next, look up impasto to see how this technique works in other paintings.
