About the Item
Mid century watercolour view of a gateway into the ancient walls of Rome, Italy, by G Tosy. The painting is signed bottom left and presented in a plain wood frame with a hand cut mount under glass.
The Aurelian Walls enclose all the seven hills of Rome plus the Campus Martius and, on the left bank of the Tiber, the Trastevere district. Tosy beautifully depicts a classic image showing the day to day life of Italian citizens entering a market place.
This watercolour captures the timeless allure of an ancient stone city gate, resonating with historical depth and architectural elegance. The use of warm, earthy tones brings the rugged texture of the stone to life, emphasizing the intricate masonry. Through the arched gateway, a sun-drenched street unfolds, animated with small figures that suggest a bustling yet serene atmosphere. The play of light and shadow adds dynamic contrast, highlighting the archways and rooflines. A scattering of verdant foliage peeks over the wall, adding a touch of liveliness and colour contrast. The artist's skilful brushwork evokes a sense of movement and vitality, inviting viewers to imagine the rich history and vibrant life within this old-world setting. Meticulously balanced, this piece blends realism and impressionistic charm, making it a captivating representation of architectural heritage and cultural narrative.

View AllRue St Rustique, Montmartre and Sacré-Coeur Basilica, Paris. Watercolor and Ink.
Located in Cotignac, FR
Mid 20th Century drawing and watercolour of Rue St Rustique in Paris. The drawing is titled and signed bottom left but the signature is as yet undeciphered. Unframed but with a cut card mount.
A charming view of one of the oldest streets in Montmartre and Paris leading up to the iconic Sacré-Coeur Basilica. The artist has captured all the charm of this treasured view. They have shown a mastery of their art and wonderful handling of the drawing and watercolour. A lovely evocative painting that would grace any collection or interior.
This street in the old village of Montmartre, which existed before the eleventh century as a path, later became an alley that served as a boundary between the seigneuries of Saint-Denis and Montmartre.
Called "rue Notre-Dame" around 1516, it is indicated on the map of Jouvin de Rochefort of 1672 as a road.
It was classified as part of the Parisian road network by a decree of 23 May...
