About this work

This painting shows a quiet church with tall columns and a simple roof. In front, there are old gravestones and a few trees. The colors are mostly soft greys, browns, and muted greens, with some bright touches on the glass lanterns near the ground. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1942. The church looks like it’s been there for a long time, with weathered stones and a peaceful, worn-in feel. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s work.
