La Cole is a 1920 watercolor by Sonia Lewitska, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a quiet village scene framed by bare tree branches in the foreground. A small house with a red roof sits in the middle, surrounded by fields and rolling hills in soft blues and greens. The sky is pale, with a few clouds, and the whole scene feels calm and a little distant. The artist used loose, watery brushstrokes to suggest light and distance, giving it a dreamy look. The colors are muted, blending smoothly without sharp edges. Next, check out the artist Sonia Lewitska for more of her work.
