About the Item

Title: Notre Dame Cathedral Paris River Seine Boats French Watercolour by Pierre Neveu Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour and ink on artists paper, unframed Size (H x W): 7.25 x 10.75 inches Condition: Good overall, with light handling marks and slight edge 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 striking Parisian watercolour by Pierre Neveu (b.1929) depicting the Notre-Dame Cathedral rising above the River Seine, viewed from the quayside with a moored boat in the foreground. This dynamic perspective captures both the architectural elegance of the cathedral and the gentle rhythm of river life that defines Paris. Executed in Neveu’s signature style — a balance of crisp ink drawing and expressive watercolour washes — the composition is alive with contrast and movement. Deep indigos and cool greys shape the bridge and boats, while subtle violets and greens animate the skyline and reflections on the water. The artist’s refined draughtsmanship reveals his architectural training, while the looseness of his brushwork lends immediacy and atmosphere. Pierre Neveu studied at the École Boulle and the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, later becoming Professor of Drawing for the City of Paris. A long-time exhibitor at the Salon d’Automne and Salon des Artistes Français, he was awarded the Gold Medal in 1994. His paintings are admired for their masterful control of tone and structure, distilling French modernist elegance into lyrical, fluid scenes. This original work — sourced directly from the artist’s estate — is a quintessential example of Neveu’s Paris river scenes, combining architectural precision with poetic freedom. A superb addition for collectors of French watercolours and mid-century cityscapes.
