Eddyville is a 1917 unspecified by Samuel Halpert, a American Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a quiet countryside scene with two small houses near a body of water. One house has a red roof, the other a mix of gray and red. Trees line the shore, and a cow grazes in the foreground. The background has rolling hills with a few scattered buildings. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. The colors feel soft but slightly muddy, like a calm, overcast day. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint for texture.
Samuel Halpert (1884–1930) was an artist, born in Białystok.
