Vejen gennem Côte-Saint-André ved Grenoble 1880s

Johan Barthold Jongkind's "Vejen gennem Côte-Saint-André ved Grenoble" is a watercolor painting from the 1880s. This painting, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a quintessential rural French scene. Jongkind's use of loose brushstrokes and subtle washes of color creates a sense of atmospheric depth, highlighting the tranquil beauty of the landscape. The winding road leading to a distant farmhouse and the lush greenery provide a glimpse into the artist's fascination with natural landscapes, a hallmark of the Barbizon school.
