About the Item

Title: British Impressionist Watercolor of Dusky Reflections on a Tranquil Lake by Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) Original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 11.25 x 15 inches (Height x Width) Condition: Good, with some minor signs of aging. Provenance: from a large collection of this artists work, held in England. Description: In this evocative watercolor, the artist captures the serene beauty of dusk settling over a quiet lake, bathed in the gentle hues of a fading day. The scene is dominated by the warm, pastel colors of the sunset, with soft oranges, pinks, and purples blending seamlessly into one another across the sky. The artist’s delicate brushstrokes and fluid washes convey a sense of calm and tranquility, as the light fades and the world slips into evening. Two clusters of trees stand on either side of the lake, their branches sparse yet elegant, silhouetted against the sky’s warm tones. These trees, rendered in dark tones with fine, expressive lines, provide contrast and draw the viewer’s eye toward the horizon. Their branches and leaves seem to reach out, adding a touch of delicate movement to the otherwise still composition. The lake reflects the colors and forms above with remarkable clarity, mirroring the trees, sky, and clouds in its glassy surface. The reflection adds depth and balance to the piece, creating a harmonious symmetry that enhances the overall sense of peace. The water, painted in subdued tones of pinks and purples, appears almost otherworldly, as if inviting the viewer into a dreamscape where time stands still. In the distance, faint outlines of distant mountains rise, softened by mist, giving a sense of space and perspective to the landscape. The mountains’ cool, bluish tones contrast gently with the warmth of the sky, grounding the composition and adding a sense of depth. This painting is a beautiful homage to the quiet, reflective moments found in nature at dusk. The artist’s use of color and light invites viewers to pause and absorb the gentle beauty of the world as it transitions from day to night, filling them with a sense of serenity and connection to the landscape.
