The School Walk 

"The School Walk," a watercolor by the English artist David Cox (1783-1859), depicts a group of children walking in front of a quaint building. This work exemplifies Cox's mastery of watercolor and his ability to capture the everyday scenes of English life. The composition is simple, featuring a row of children, their figures silhouetted against the pale building, which serves as the central focal point. Cox's use of light and shadow, characteristic of his style, creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, highlighting the architectural detail of the building and the delicate forms of the children.
