About the Item
Title: Harbourfront with Yellow Facades and Moored Boat Italian Riviera Watercolour
Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929)
Medium: Watercolour on artists paper, unframed
Size (H x W): 9.75 x 6.25 inches
Condition: good overall; clean surface and bright palette with minimal handling marks.
Provenance: From the artist’s studio sale in France; all works by this artist in our collection originate from the artist’s estate.
Description: Pierre Neveu captures the effortless charm of the Italian Riviera in this lively harbour scene, where sunlit ochre facades overlook gently bobbing boats. Painted with his trademark clarity and rhythm, the composition layers the elegance of Italian architecture — with its pale yellow plaster, green shutters, and marble ornament — against the cool blues of sea and sky.
A single moored fishing vessel, painted in a striking combination of orange and white, anchors the foreground, while Neveu’s ink lines and transparent washes bring the energy of the waterfront to life. The background reveals mountain silhouettes softened by haze, suggesting a coastal town nestled between land and sea — possibly Portofino or Lake Garda.
Neveu’s palette and perspective here are at their most confident: angular shadows meet fluid reflections, evoking both the precision of draughtsmanship and the looseness of plein-air spontaneity. The result is a vibrant, atmospheric portrait of Mediterranean life — architectural yet deeply human.
A standout example of Neveu’s postwar European style, ideal for collectors of Riviera art, Italian seascapes, or mid-century architectural watercolours, where travel, sunlight, and artistic ease converge.
