Description
A small white cottage with a red-tiled roof sits on a low rise, ringed by dark, wind-bent trees, above a still marsh pool where a couple of tiny boats float at anchor. Reddish-brown earth and green scrub roll across the middle ground, and the water catches streaks of blue and rust from a soft, hazy sky washed in pink and grey.
Renoir builds the scene in thick, textured strokes, warm ochres and reds set against the cool water and pale dusk light, giving the quiet coastal landscape a heavy, weathered feel typical of the Brittany shore.
This Brittany landscape is available as a hand-painted oil reproduction or an archival canvas print, made to order in whatever size you need.
