Description:
This striking riverside composition by French modernist Guy Nicod (1923–2021) captures a cluster of traditional houses nestled among trees, reflected in the calm waters of a blue-toned river. Rendered in rich, textural oil pastel, the scene is defined by strong linear architecture and balanced organic shapes. The main house, with its steep navy roof and soft beige façade, is framed by blossoming trees in pink and white, suggesting the arrival of spring.
A variety of supporting structures — barns, sheds, and trees — flank the composition, contributing to the sense of a lived-in, working rural space. Nicod's confident pastel strokes and sophisticated sense of geometry transform the familiar subject into something abstracted and rhythmic. Deep green lawns and grassy verges meet soft grey skies, while the water at the bottom of the frame introduces a cooler, reflective element that anchors the scene.
This work evokes the tranquillity of riverside living and the architecture of northern or central France, possibly inspired by the countryside of Normandy or the Loire Valley. The mood is both contemplative and gently celebratory — a moment of stillness rendered with expressive motion.
Ideal for collectors of modernist landscapes, French architecture, or artworks featuring water reflections, this pastel drawing is an evocative and elegant piece that would complement both contemporary and traditional interiors.
