House and Garden 1884

John Singer Sargent's "House and Garden" (1884) depicts a charming scene of a white house nestled amongst lush greenery. The composition is dominated by a cluster of trees, their dark foliage providing a stark contrast to the bright sky and white building. Sargent's signature loose brushstrokes and impressionistic style capture the light and shadow interplay, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. The viewer is drawn into the peaceful scene, inviting contemplation of the beauty of nature and the quiet solitude of a rural setting.
