Old arched building at Bol, Brittany

About this work

This painting shows a rough stone building with two arched doorways. Inside, three people sit at a table under the right arch, while two others stand near the left arch. The walls are uneven, and the ground looks wet or sandy. The colors are mostly muted grays and browns, with a few brighter spots on the people’s clothes. The title says this is a place called Bol in Brittany, a region in France. The artist used soft watercolor strokes to show the texture of the stones and the light.
