About the Item

Title: Family on Beach with Striped Windbreak Summer Scene Watercolour by Pierre Neveu Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artist paper, unframed Size (H x W): 6.25 x 7.75 inches Condition: Good overall, with light handling marks and minor natural toning consistent with age. Provenance: From the artist’s studio sale in France; all works by this artist in our collection originate from the artist’s estate. Description: This lively watercolour by Pierre Neveu captures a relaxed family moment on a sunlit beach, rendered with the artist’s signature blend of expressive linework and confident, fluid washes. Neveu frequently explored scenes of everyday life, and this composition brings together figures, light, and movement in an effortlessly modern, mid-century style. At the centre, a mother sits with a young child on her lap, both framed by the bold diagonal stripes of a blue and white beach windbreak. Their poses feel tender and natural, sketched with loose pencil lines that remain visible beneath the paint. To the right, another seated figure helps soften the composition, their form shaded in warm browns and purples. Behind them, a woman stands silhouetted against a bright yellow sky, her blue dress catching the late-afternoon sun. The background is defined by a horizon of deep teal sea and distant beachgoers, giving the whole work a sense of warmth, space, and narrative. Neveu uses broad, energetic brushstrokes to suggest sand, shadow, and reflected light, creating a dynamic foreground that feels both spontaneous and controlled. As with many of Neveu’s coastal scenes, this piece balances realism with abstraction, allowing the viewer to recognise the environment while also appreciating the painterly construction beneath it. The combination of confident colour, gestural lines, and sensitive figurative observation makes this a strong example of the artist’s work — particularly appealing to collectors of European mid-century watercolours and summery, atmospheric scenes.
