About the Item
Title: Provençal Village Landscape with Red Roofs and Cypress Trees Pastel Drawing
Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929)
Medium: Pastel and pen on artists paper, unframed
Size (H x W): 6.25 x 8.75 inches
Condition: good overall; colour remains rich and stable with minor surface texture consistent with medium.
Provenance: From the artist’s studio sale in France; all works by this artist in our collection originate from the artist’s estate.
Description: This radiant pastel landscape by Pierre Neveu captures the warmth and texture of a Provençal hillside village, nestled among cypress trees and wild Mediterranean flora. The artist’s bold use of colour — deep ultramarines, sunlit yellows, and ochres — evokes the timeless atmosphere of southern France, where light and architecture merge in vivid harmony.
Neveu’s expressive mark-making, achieved through layered chalk pastel and gestural graphite, lends a tactile depth to the scene. The scattered rooftops and central church tower suggest a traditional village in Provence, possibly near Vence or Fayence, framed by the lush greenery of early summer.
The dynamic composition, enclosed by silhouetted trees and opening to distant fields, demonstrates Neveu’s sensitivity to both structure and spontaneity — translating the rhythms of nature and built form into colour and energy. His approach bridges observation and abstraction, revealing the emotional resonance of landscape rather than its strict topography.
A superb example of Neveu’s command of post-war French landscape drawing, this work embodies the Mediterranean ideal — vibrant, sunlit, and profoundly human in its connection to place.

Mid-20th Century Post-Impressionist Pastel Village Scene with Cypress Trees
Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Title: Mid-20th Century Post-Impressionist Pastel Village Scene with Cypress Trees
by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977)
Signed: Yes
Medium: Pastel on unframed paper
Size: 18 inches (height) x 12.75 inches (width)
Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.
Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France.
Description: This expressive Mid-20th Century Post-Impressionist pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard presents a sun-soaked village scene surrounded by slender cypress trees and rustic Mediterranean architecture. The warm pastel tones—terracotta, peach, ochre, and soft pink—combine with splashes of green foliage and vibrant orange fruit to evoke a summery, southern European atmosphere.
While the lower right inscription appears to read "Gzenote," the specific location remains unclear. Nevertheless, the composition strongly suggests a Provençal or Italian hill town...
