About this work

This painting shows a room with two open windows. Outside, a wide view of a city unfolds—buildings, a river, and tiny figures walking. Inside, a wooden floor and two vases hold flowers, one red and white, the other dry and green. The brushstrokes are loose, almost hurried, with thick paint in some spots. The light outside makes the room feel bright, even though the colors are muted. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint like this works.
