The picture is painted quickly and thickly, the broom dabbed in with loaded strokes of yellow, the sky scraped thin. Guy Benard (born 1928), a painter from Rouen who exhibited across France, worked in a bright post-Impressionist manner and painted Normandy, Giverny and Provence; this small canvas, titled on the reverse, is one of his southern subjects.
