About the piece
Painted in 1913 by Georges Gaudion, this oil study of the Place du Griffoul in Gaillac showcases a rich, post-impressionist style. The composition is anchored by a large, circular fountain, while the surrounding buildings are rendered in warm ochre and terracotta tones against a deep blue sky, highlighting the artist's confident impasto technique.
