About this work

You're looking at a watercolour painting. It's called "Les Aliscamps, Arles". The image shows a stone archway with trees behind it. The archway is in the middle of the image. It's a bit worn down and has some plants growing on it. The trees are green and leafy. They're behind the archway and make the scene feel peaceful. The painting is done in watercolours. It's a pretty simple image, but it's nice to look at. The artist, Frank Randal, did a good job of capturing the feeling of the place.
