Wright, Saint-Pierre-Quiberon, Watercolour, circa 1960s Material: Watercolour on Paper, Painted Wood Frame, Glass An atmospheric mid-20th-century watercolour by artist Fred W. Wright, depicting Saint-Pierre-Quiberon in Brittany, France. Dating from circa the 1960s, the work is executed with a subtle and harmonious use of colour, capturing the distinctive character of the Breton setting through delicate washes and fluid handling of the watercolour medium. The restrained palette lends the composition a particularly pleasing sense of atmosphere and depth. An exhibition label retained verso provides further historical context and association with the artist. The watercolour is presented beneath glass within a painted wooden frame, which displays some distressing consistent with its age. Presented in good vintage condition, with appropriate signs of age consistent with its date and medium. The frame is slightly distressed.
