This watercolor shows a large, brick house with tall windows and a small porch. Two bare trees stand in front, and the ground looks damp. A few people walk near the entrance, and a bench sits to the right. The artist used loose, quick brushstrokes—especially on the trees—to keep it light and airy. The house’s details, like the shutters and doorway, are drawn carefully, but the rest feels sketchy. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
