This painting shows a quiet valley with rolling hills and a few small buildings. The houses have simple roofs, some with chimneys, and a dirt road winds past them. In the distance, snow-capped mountains rise against a soft blue sky. The artist used loose brushstrokes to show the texture of the land—fields, trees, and even the rough walls of the houses. The colors are warm and earthy, with pops of green and purple in the hills. Look up Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
