    A House with Flowering Trees along the Amalfi Coast of Italy (circa 1928)

    Constantin Westchiloff (Russian, 1878–1945)

    Sunlight dances on whitewashed walls, framed by bursts of pink blossoms. The Amalfi cliffs tumble toward turquoise waters, while a lone house nestles among the flowering trees. Sea breeze carries petals across the terrace—a quiet corner where land and light meet the Mediterranean.

    Tadeusz Makowski (Polish, 1882–1932)

    A rustic house stands firm against the wind, its slanted roof sheltering a scatter of chickens pecking at the dirt. The landscape bends around it—fields, fences, and a sky heavy with motion. Every brushstroke feels alive, as if the scene might shift the moment you look away.

    Henri Martin (French, 1860–1943)

    Sunlight slants across weathered stone, softening the edges where wall meets roof. A quiet patch of French countryside holds its breath—just a corner, really, but alive with dappled shadows and the weight of midday heat. The house seems to exhale color into the still air.

    Tadeusz Makowski (Polish, 1882–1932)

    A tilted house leans into the wind, its walls splintered between two twisted trees. The landscape buckles under unseen pressure, shapes bending as if seen through warped glass. Something familiar fractures here—home, stability—yet the trees stand, stubborn and gnarled against the sky’s uneasy weight.

    Tadeusz Makowski (Polish, 1882–1932)

    A child stands alone before a house, their small figure dwarfed by angular walls. The scene hums with quiet tension—something unseen lingers in the stark geometry of the building, the way shadows cling to the child’s silhouette. Poland’s muted colors whisper a story half-told.

    Tadeusz Makowski (Polish, 1882–1932)

    A child stands solemn before a weathered house, her small figure framed by rough wooden planks. The muted colors and angular shapes lend the scene an air of quiet mystery—neither playful nor sad, but weighted with unspoken stories.
