This sketch shows a quiet village with simple houses and a church steeple in the distance. The buildings are small and plain, with a few trees scattered around. The ground is rough, with some rocks and a small stream running through it. The colors are mostly soft and muted, with light washes of blue and green. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to capture the scene, leaving some areas almost empty. The date in the corner tells us this was painted in 1943, likely from memory or a quick visit.
