About the Item

Title: Sablet Provence Village Sunlit Houses Cypress Tree and Summer Landscape Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on card, unframed Inscribed lower right Sablet (location) Size (H x W): 5.75 x 9.75 inches Condition: Good overall, with light handling marks and faint edge wear consistent with age. Small areas of surface spotting near edges but the main image area remains clean, vivid, and structurally sound. 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 expressive Provençal landscape by Pierre Neveu depicts the picturesque village of Sablet, a celebrated commune in the Vaucluse region of southern France. Known for its golden stone houses, terracotta rooftops, winding lanes and cypress-dotted hillsides, Sablet lies between Gigondas and Séguret and is surrounded by vineyards producing the renowned Côtes du Rhône Villages wines. Neveu’s inscription at the lower right clearly identifies the setting, adding strong contextual and SEO value for collectors of regional French art. Neveu captures the radiant Mediterranean light with loose yet confident watercolour washes. In the foreground, a shaded stone wall and wire fence anchor the composition, leading the eye toward a sunlit cluster of white and ochre houses. The warm yellow façade at the centre glows in the late afternoon light, contrasted beautifully by the deep greens of surrounding trees and the bold silhouette of a tall cypress tree—an iconic symbol of Provence. Beyond the houses, the landscape opens into rolling hills and distant rooftops that fade softly into cool blues, creating depth and a sense of tranquil rural life. Neveu’s mixture of ink outline, visible pencil underdrawing, and gestural colour washes embodies his Post-Impressionist style: atmospheric, fluid, and attentive to the architecture and rhythms of southern France. Pierre Neveu (b.1929), trained at the École Boulle and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, exhibited widely at the Salon d’Automne and Salon des Artistes Français, receiving the Gold Medal in 1994. His Provençal scenes are especially admired for their vibrancy, clarity, and evocative sense of place. Unframed and ready for bespoke presentation.
