Painting depicting a narrow street in Capri with whitewashed buildings highlighted by the intense Mediterranean light. A limited palette of colors has been used to create this painting with white ochres and blues predominating. The painter has deliberately tried to capture the reflection of light on flat surfaces interrupted by the shadows of doors and windows.
