This painting shows an old stone house with a tall chimney and a slanted roof. The walls are rough and patchy, some parts darker than others. Hay sits in the corner near the building, and a bare tree stands in front of it. The sky is light and soft, fading into distant hills. The artist used watercolor, keeping the colors muted and blending them smoothly. The house looks worn, like it’s been there for a long time.
