About this work

This painting shows a quiet street with a small church at its center. The church has a simple white wall, a round window with bars, and a red arched doorway. Nearby buildings are made of warm, earthy colors, and a few people stand in the shadowy alley to the left. The brushstrokes are loose and bright, giving the scene a soft, dreamy feel. The artist used watercolor, letting the paint blend smoothly for a light, airy look. Check out more about the technique: watercolor, glazing.
