A village in the countryside

A serene countryside village bathed in warm golden-hour light, rendered in rich oil-painting style with thick impasto and luscious glaze layers, showing ivy-clad stone cottages with thatched roofs clustered around a sun-drenched square, a winding cobblestone lane curling toward rolling emerald hills, a tranquil river reflecting the sky, distant farmland and a soft haze on the horizon, and a few villagers quietly going about their day, all painted in earthy ochres, umbers, yellows, and blues to evoke timeless rural serenity.
