A Street in Brittany is a painting dated 1881 by the artist Stanhope Forbes.

The following year he went to work in Cancale, a small fishing village near Saint-Malo in Brittany.

He was anxious about how his picture would be received, partly about the figure in the foreground being out of scale with the rest of the figures, and possibly about the visible brush-work and the picture's overall blue tone.

A critic in the Pall Mall Gazette accused him of "seeing nature through blue spectacles".

[3] Forbes later moved to Cornwall where he became a leading figure in the Newlyn School of painters.
