About the Item

Title: Italian Village Street Sunlit Houses with Blue Sky Watercolor Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artist paper, unframed Size (H x W): 8.5 x 6.25 inches Condition: Good overall. Vibrant colour and clear definition with slight surface wear 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 beautifully observed Italian village scene by Post-Impressionist painter Pierre Neveu (b.1929). This original watercolor and gouache on paper, inscribed Italie, captures a sun-drenched street lined with ochre and terracotta façades beneath a radiant blue sky. Neveu’s loose yet precise brushwork conveys the warmth and atmosphere of southern Europe, where quiet lanes, shuttered windows, and climbing greenery reflect the charm of traditional Italian architecture. The composition is a masterclass in light and shadow: cool tones in the shaded foreground contrast with the bright sunlight illuminating the upper façades, evoking the tranquil rhythm of life in a Mediterranean hill town. Neveu’s academic background—studied at the École Boulle and the National School of Fine Arts in Paris—shows through in his deft handling of structure and form, while his expressive colour sense brings vitality and immediacy to the scene. Collectors of European landscape art and Mediterranean watercolours will appreciate this painting’s balance of painterly freedom and architectural clarity. It offers not only aesthetic appeal but also a timeless sense of place, recalling the beauty of Tuscany, Liguria, or Provence under the midday sun. Pierre Neveu exhibited widely across France, including at the Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Artistes Français, where he later became President of the painting section. His works are admired for their radiant palette and sensitivity to light—qualities that define this evocative Italian village watercolor.
