About this work

This painting shows a row of colorful buildings along a riverbank. The houses have slanted roofs in reds, greens, and browns, with some windows and doors visible. The river below is painted in soft blues and whites, with a few dark brushstrokes for movement. The colors are bright but uneven, like quick, rough strokes. The buildings look like they might be in a small town or village. The artist used thick, visible brushstrokes that make the scene feel lively and a little messy. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
