"Study for ‘Church at Tréboul’" is a preparatory sketch and study that captures the essence of a quaint coastal village. The painting exhibits characteristics of Naïve art (primitivism), with its straightforward composition and vibrant, simplified forms that evoke a sense of sincerity and innocence. The artist's approach emphasizes a direct, unpretentious depiction of the scene, aligning with the principles of Surrealism by exploring dreamlike interpretations of everyday life. This work provides insight into the artist's process and connection to both primitive and modern artistic movements.
