This work depicts a rural landscape of the Limousin region, with houses with red roofs, a winding path, and vegetation rendered in broad areas of color. The composition emphasizes the construction of masses and the atmosphere, in a restrained and structured style characteristic of artists associated with the Crozant School. The harmonious palette blends greens, mauves, and ochres, reflecting a search for light and depth, while maintaining a clear and accessible style.
