In Maurice de Vlaminck's Houses Along the Road (Maisons au bord de la route) beautiful pastoral scene unfolds before the viewer’s eyes in this endearing scene of houses along a country road. Known for using colors to convey mood, Vlaminck emphasizes the peaceful landscape with delicately painted greens and yellows against a hint of deep blue. We can easily imagine strolling through such a town in the early months of autumn, the yellow leaves and the blue water to reminding us of summer slowly passing.
