The Village and Chapel of Sainte-Avoye (Morbihan) 1908

Maxime Maufra's "The Village and Chapel of Sainte-Avoye (Morbihan)" is a captivating oil painting from 1908 depicting a rural scene in Brittany, France. The artist's signature style of bold brushstrokes and expressive color is evident in the depiction of the quaint village nestled against a backdrop of a prominent church. The central chapel, with its towering spire, commands attention, its white facade contrasting with the warm tones of the surrounding houses and the verdant foliage. A winding path leads the viewer's eye toward the chapel, inviting contemplation of the tranquil scene. This picturesque landscape exemplifies Maufra's talent for capturing the essence of rural life and the serenity of the Breton countryside.
