The paint is laid on with the knife in dry, scumbled strokes, the colours of the walls, sand, brick and burnt sienna, set off by the cool sky. Marcel Cramoysan (1915–2007), pupil of Pinchon and one of the last painters of the École de Rouen, travelled through Provence, Spain and Italy for subjects like this one; the village here, with its southern light and its tall spire, is one of his southern motifs, painted with the warm, earthy palette he kept for them.
