Auguste Lepère: La mare de la prairie à Crèvecoeur (Picardie)

Auguste Louis Lepère

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white sketch of a village scene. The scene shows a row of three two-story buildings with chimneys and multiple windows, situated on the far side of a body of water. The buildings have a brick or stone exterior and sloping roofs. In the foreground, two people are shown standing in the water, one appearing to assist the other. On the left side of the image, people are standing outside the buildings. The water reflects the buildings and the sky. The sky appears cloudy. The image has a light-brown border around it. The artist's signature is in the bottom-right corner. The scene appears to be set in a rural area.
