Village Street

Amerikanische Grafik 1917–1929, 1920–1923

The image shows a scene from an elevated point looking down, with a house and dense foliage obscuring the horizon. The house is towards the left, and its rooflines create horizontal lines amidst the vertical and diagonal lines of the trees. The brushstrokes suggest movement, especially in the branches and foliage, with colors like blue, orange, and brown. The color palette includes earthy tones and cooler blues. The lower part has rich detail with a path leading to the house and dense tree branches, while the distance shows softer outlines of the natural surroundings extending beyond.
