About the Item

Title: Notre Dame Cathedral Paris River Seine Bridge French Watercolour by Pierre Neveu Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artists paper, unframed Size (H x W): 6 x 8.5 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 serene and luminous Paris watercolour by Pierre Neveu (b.1929), depicting the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral viewed from across the River Seine. The artist’s confident linework and masterful control of translucent washes capture both the monument’s architectural grace and the soft atmospheric light of the city. Executed with Neveu’s trademark minimalism, this composition distils the essence of Paris into fluid strokes of blue, grey, and ochre. The cathedral’s twin towers rise with quiet majesty above the bridge, while boats and reflections along the riverbank create a rhythmic, modern composition. Despite its apparent simplicity, the piece reveals Neveu’s deep understanding of proportion, perspective, and tone — qualities that defined his long and celebrated career. Trained at the École Boulle and the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Pierre Neveu later served as Professor of Drawing for the City of Paris. He exhibited regularly at the Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Artistes Français, earning the Gold Medal in 1994. His works are admired for their architectural precision, gestural vitality, and timeless French modernist sensibility. This painting — sourced directly from the artist’s estate — exemplifies Neveu’s lyrical treatment of Notre-Dame and the Seine, combining structure and spontaneity in a style that is both sophisticated and deeply atmospheric. A standout addition for collectors of Parisian cityscapes and 20th-century French watercolours.
