Cottage at Fairford, Gloucestershire 1892

"Cottage at Fairford, Gloucestershire" is a watercolor painting by the American artist John Singer Sargent, created in 1892. This painting, now in a private collection, captures a quaint English cottage with a thatched roof, bathed in a soft, dappled light. The painting features Sargent's signature loose and expressive brushwork, creating a sense of immediacy and capturing the subtle nuances of light and shadow on the building and surrounding vegetation. This piece is typical of Sargent's "plein air" style, where he would capture the fleeting beauty of the landscape in watercolor on location.
