Italian Hilltop Farm

Edgar Wood A.R.I.B.A. 1860 - 1935

Summary

An idyllic landscape scene painted in an impressionistic style, offering a view towards an Italitan hilltop town, which is partially concealed by lush trees and bushes in the foreground. The farm referenced in the title probably refers to the location of the painter rather than the view across the town. Houses and a church are visible in the town in orange and yellow tones. The impressionistic style is especially evident in the foreground, with especially rapid paintwork and swathes of colour in red and green.
