Chateau, Cote Saint Andre 1882

Johan Barthold Jongkind's watercolor "Chateau, Cote Saint Andre" (1882) captures a tranquil landscape scene, with the French village of Cote Saint Andre situated in the distance. The artist's use of soft, suggestive brushstrokes creates a sense of atmospheric depth, emphasizing the distant view of the town, partially obscured by verdant hills. This work exemplifies Jongkind's signature style, often employing muted colors and a focus on light and atmosphere, typical of the Impressionist movement.
