Fair in Brittany

Eugène Boudin, 1874

This painting shows a busy marketplace scene at eye level with a crowd of people and cattle. Hills are in the distance under a cloudy gray sky, and in front of them we can see a line of rooftops and a tall church spire. In front of these buildings are the people and cattle. The people are indistinct, but many of them seem to wear white or red head coverings and clothes in earthy tones. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible, giving the scene a blurred appearance.
