Paesaggio dell’Île-de-France

Édouard Vuillard, circa 1894

This painting shows a landscape seen from an elevated view. Fields dotted with small trees line a hill that reaches up towards the horizon, below a blue sky full of white, puffy clouds. The fields on the hill are different shades of green and brown, with some rectangles painted in bright yellow. Closer to us, at the base of the hill, a brown shape on the left suggests a structure. There is also a gray shape in the bottom right corner, topped with a line of bright orange. Thick, swirling brushstrokes create texture in the fields and clouds.
