About this work

This painting shows a corner of a street with two buildings. The building on the left is white with many windows and a balcony. The building on the right is yellow with fewer windows. There are trees on both sides of the street. The sky is blue with some clouds. The artist used cross-hatching to create shading and texture on the buildings and trees. The lines are close together in some areas, making them darker, and farther apart in other areas, making them lighter. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of artist Åkerblom, Rudolf.
