French school (XX) - Maisons de campagne

Watercolor on paper depicting a country house surrounded by trees and rural outbuildings.

The work presents a peaceful scene enlivened by figures near a well, in a bright atmosphere typical of French rural landscapes from the 1950s-1960s.

The palette of greens, browns and blues as well as the transparency of the washes give this composition a pleasant softness.
