About the piece

Painted in 1911, Walter Griffin’s 'Carcassonne' captures the historic French city with a lush, impasto technique. The work emphasizes the interplay of Mediterranean light against weathered stone walls and a brilliant blue sky, bringing a tactile, energetic presence to the scene that is characteristic of American Impressionism.
