Willy Lott's House (recto); Landscape Sketches with Trees and Church Tower (verso) is a 1816 oil by John Constable, held at Clark Art Institute.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with a house nestled among trees. The scene is rendered in muted colors, with the house featuring a brown roof and white walls. In the foreground, a dirt path leads the viewer's eye towards the house, while the background is dominated by a cloudy sky. A notable detail in the painting is the way the artist has captured the play of light and shadow on the trees and the house, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured quality. To explore more of John Constable's work, visit the Clark Art Institute.
