About this work

This painting shows a small village nestled in a valley with rocky hills behind it. The buildings have red roofs and sit among green trees, while a stone wall runs along the bottom edge. The colors are muted, with earthy browns and greens, and the sky is a soft blue. The brushstrokes are thick in places, especially on the hills and trees, giving the scene a textured look. This style is called *impasto*—where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost feel the texture. Look up technique: impasto to see more examples of this bold brushwork.
