The artist skillfully portrays the scene with muted colors, adding depth to the stone buildings and a misty, rain-soaked atmosphere. In the foreground, figures with colorful umbrellas dot the cobblestone street, bringing life to the dreary day. Lel’s impasto brushwork enhances the feeling of texture and movement, especially in the rain-soaked surfaces. This evocative scene transports the viewer to a peaceful, rainy day in Brittany, where life continues quietly under the showers.
