About the Item

Venice, Italy, mid century urban view 0f daily life in this iconic city by Henri Levasseur. The painting is signed and dated bottom right and titled bottom left. Presented in a fine gilt wooden frame with card card mount under glass. This charming painting vividly captures a lively street scene in Venice set against the distinct architecture of this iconic city. The composition prominently features grand arches, rendered in rich, warm hues that contrast with the softer palette of pastel buildings in the background. These structures, with their charming window shutters and textured facades, evoke a sense of timeless elegance yet they are grounded by the artistic graffiti that covers some of them. In the foreground, figures engage in everyday activities, contributing life and movement to the scene, while small dogs add a playful element, enhancing the depiction of a bustling community. The artist’s use of bold brushstrokes conveys energy, while the interplay of light and shadow infuses the piece with a dynamic, atmospheric quality. This painting stands out for its ability to transport the viewer, evoking a vivid sense of place and time, while celebrating the beauty of urban life through masterful composition and colour.
