Theodore Robinson's "The Old Mill (Vieux Moulin)" is a landscape painting from 1892 that depicts a rural French scene. The painting's soft brushstrokes and light colors create a sense of tranquility and capture the atmosphere of a quiet countryside. The subject matter of a country road leading to a mill is reminiscent of Impressionist paintings, which emphasize the effects of light on nature and everyday scenes. Robinson's work is known for its delicate handling of light and color, influenced by his time spent in Giverny alongside Claude Monet and other Impressionists. The painting is now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
