Saint-Cirq-Lapopie in Evening 1897

Henri Martin's "Saint-Cirq-Lapopie in Evening" (1897) is a painting depicting the village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, France, at twilight. The painting showcases Martin's signature use of color and light to create a luminous and atmospheric scene. The village is perched high on a cliff, its buildings silhouetted against the pale evening sky. The artist's brushstrokes are loose and expressive, capturing the gentle movement of the light and air. The painting is a testament to Martin's mastery of landscape painting and his ability to evoke a sense of tranquility and beauty in nature.
