About the Item

Title: Rochefort en Terre Brittany Village Street Mid Century Watercolour by Neveu Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on artist paper, unframed Size (H x W): 8.75 x 6.5 inches Inscribed lower left “Rochefort en Terre” 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 luminous and delicately observed mid-century French street scene by Pierre Neveu (French, b. 1929), depicting the charming village of Rochefort-en-Terre in Brittany. Rendered in Neveu’s distinctive combination of watercolour and ink, the piece captures the play of sunlight and shadow along a narrow lane framed by centuries-old façades. Neveu’s controlled washes of blue and ochre contrast beautifully with loose, gestural linework that brings architectural texture to life. The cool morning light and crisp sky evoke the stillness of a quiet Breton morning, while his use of empty space enhances the sense of calm and structure. Rochefort-en-Terre is one of France’s most celebrated “Les Plus Beaux Villages,” and this sensitive study reflects both its rustic charm and Neveu’s mastery of plein air modernism. A superb choice for collectors drawn to French regional landscapes, mid-century art, or works that blend architectural form with lyrical atmosphere.
