Sunlit Wall Under a Tree

John Singer Sargent, vers 1913

This is a painting of a sunlit street scene. On the left side of the gray street is a tall brown building. On the right side, a large tree with green leaves is partially obscured by a gray wall. The sun shines from above through the leaves, casting shadows on the street below. The painting features loose, fluid brushstrokes, and the colors are soft, muted earth tones.
