About this work

This 1961 watercolor shows a window with sunlit glass panes. The paint stays thin but layered, letting light shine through in soft glows. Inside, you can just make out a dark room and a simple table. Michou liked playing with light and shape. He didn’t fill the scene with details. Instead, he let the glazing—layering thin washes—do the work. If you like this, look up Michou, Sotirios (1936–2010).
