Village Bridge in Bloom
Watercolor and ink on paper · Naïve Folk Art
A lively folk-art landscape portrays a tropical village arranged around a winding stream, with thatched homes, cultivated fields, palms, dense vegetation, and figures crossing the paths and bridge. Strong black outlines contain bright areas of green, gold, turquoise, and red, while the flowering tree at center creates a graceful vertical counterpoint to the low horizon and broad foreground water.
