Currently, it resides in a private collection.
The artwork features a street scene characterized by the vivid use of color and dynamic brushstrokes typical of van Gogh’s style. Dominated by a golden-yellow sky, it presents a quaint street flanked by houses with thatched and tiled roofs, extending into the distance. The lush greenery to the right, interspersed with red flowers, adds a lively and contrasting element to the composition. The brushwork conveys a sense of movement and vitality, capturing the essence of a serene yet vibrant village scene under a bright day.
