A House, West Humble Lane, Norbury, Surrey is a 1806 watercolor by Cornelius Varley, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a charming house with a chimney and a fence. The house is made of stone and has a sloping roof. There's a tree on the left side of the image, and some bushes on the right. The house looks old and rustic, with some vines growing on the walls. The artist has used watercolor and graphite to create a soft, dreamy effect. The colors are muted, with shades of brown and gray dominating the palette. If you like this style of painting, you might want to explore more works from the Romanticism movement.
