About the Item

Title: Provence Stone Bridge Village Scene Watercolour French Post Impressionist Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artists paper, unframed Size (H x W): 7.25 x 6.25 inches Signed: Signed lower left, Inscribed 'Menton' lower right Condition: Good overall with light handling to the sheet edges and the natural deckle of the paper; colours remain fresh and surface is sound, 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 captivating French watercolour by Pierre Neveu, depicting a sunlit stone bridge crossing a quiet village stream in Provence. Executed in Neveu’s distinctive Post-Impressionist style, the composition combines architectural precision with expressive washes of colour. The ochre facades of the surrounding houses glow against the vivid blue of the sky, while deep shadows and reflections in the water create a strong sense of atmosphere and place. The painting captures the timeless charm of southern France, where narrow streets, bridges, and tree-lined waterways have inspired artists for generations. Neveu’s fluid brushwork and expert handling of light bring life to the scene—the cool blues and greys of the bridge contrasting beautifully with the warm tones of terracotta roofs and golden stone. His sense of composition reveals a mastery of balance between structure and spontaneity, hallmarks of the French Post-Impressionist movement. Collectors of Provençal and Mediterranean landscape art will find this piece particularly appealing for its authenticity and lyrical quality. Pierre Neveu (b.1929) studied at the École Boulle and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris before becoming Professor of Drawing for the City of Paris. He exhibited widely at the Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Artistes Français, earning critical acclaim for his vibrant depictions of French villages and countryside. This original unframed watercolour is a striking example of Neveu’s ability to capture light, architecture, and emotion within a single composition—perfect for collectors of 20th-century French landscape painting.
