Ferme Repérée
£145.00
A striking tonal watercolor and ink on paper, depicting a rural farmstead rendered in warm browns and ochres, with a dramatic inky cloud erupting at the left, suggestive of an explosion or artillery strike. The composition is titled “La Ferme Repérée” -Spotted Farm- in the lower right, signed just below the title and dated 1918, during the final year of the First World War. The stone-built structures appear damaged, likely from bombing, while scattered cobblestones add to the sense of disruption. A powerful wartime image that blends graphic immediacy with a sharp documentary eye.
