Road at St Paul (Var) is a 1922 oil by Félix Vallotton, a Post-Impressionism work, held at National Gallery.
This painting shows a winding road in a small village. The road is paved with stones and has a low wall on one side. A person is standing on the road, wearing a hat and a long coat. They are looking down the road, which curves out of sight. The painting is done in muted colors, with shades of green, brown, and gray dominating the palette. The sky above is a pale blue, with a few clouds scattered across it. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the viewer is being invited to step into the peaceful world of the painting.
