Subject

Village scene with river

Description

This village scene, painted by Faraj Abbu, has been rendered with a delicate beauty indicated by the tranquility of the weather and the placidity of the river. The muted color scheme and fluidity of line contribute to the peaceful nature of the composition. The presence of human participants is hinted at by the inclusion of house-like structures sitting atop the river embankment. Yet, the solitude of this site is felt as the artist has chosen not to include actual human figures.
