A luminous watercolor capturing a serene riverside view in Paris, likely along the Seine. The artist’s delicate brushwork and soft, layered washes evoke the gentle light of an early morning or late afternoon scene. Graceful architectural silhouettes—bridge arches, spires, and a domed building—rise beyond the tranquil water, framed by leafy trees and two quiet figures on the riverbank.

Rendered in a harmonious palette of greens, ochres, and muted blues, this piece beautifully conveys the poetic calm of Parisian life along the water. Its impressionist influence and sensitive handling of color make it equally appealing to collectors of European landscapes and to those seeking a refined, soothing artwork for their home or office.
