About the Item

Title: French Countryside Church and Blossom Tree Landscape Post Impressionist Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artists paper, unframed Size (H x W): 5.25 x 7 inches Signed: inscribed lower right Tour sur plaine (Tower over plain) Condition: Good overall with light handling to the sheet edges and the natural deckle of the paper; colours remain fresh and surface is sound, 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: A serene and luminous French landscape watercolour by Pierre Neveu, titled Tour sur plaine (Tower over plain). This elegant composition captures a quiet rural view dominated by a church spire rising above red-roofed village houses, framed by a flowering tree in the foreground. Neveu’s masterful handling of watercolour conveys both freshness and depth—the soft greens of the fields blend seamlessly with the delicate purples and blues of spring blossoms. His confident brushwork and use of negative space create a natural rhythm across the composition, evoking the tranquillity of the French countryside. The artist’s sensitivity to light and atmosphere recalls the Post-Impressionist tradition, in which emotion and place merge through expressive colour and gesture. The work’s intimate scale enhances its immediacy, inviting the viewer into a moment of quiet observation beneath a clear Provençal sky. Collectors of French village and landscape art will appreciate the charm and authenticity of this scene, emblematic of Neveu’s lyrical approach to everyday beauty. Pierre Neveu (b.1929) studied at the École Boulle and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris before becoming Professor of Drawing for the City of Paris. He exhibited widely at the Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Artistes Français and is celebrated for his vibrant depictions of rural France. This unframed watercolour offers an atmospheric glimpse into the timeless landscapes that inspired generations of French Post-Impressionist painters.
