About the Item

Title: British Impressionist Watercolor of an Italian Harbor Scene with Fishing Boats By Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) Original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 12 x 15.75 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: This evocative watercolor painting captures a picturesque harbor scene in Italy, featuring rows of colorful fishing boats moored along the waterfront, set against a backdrop of warm-toned, weathered buildings. The facades of the buildings, rendered in soft pinks, ochres, and light browns, are adorned with shutters, balconies, and charmingly uneven windows, reflecting the timeless character of a coastal town. The artist skillfully employs a balance of light and shadow, with the reflective quality of the water adding depth and movement to the composition. The boats, painted in deep greens, reds, and blues, contrast beautifully with the sunlit walls of the buildings, creating a harmonious yet vibrant palette. Fishing nets and poles add further authenticity to the scene, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a working harbor. This piece conveys a serene yet lively atmosphere, with its impressionistic brushwork and subtle interplay of colors evoking the charm and tranquility of coastal living.

Venice Backwater, Painting, Watercolor on Watercolor Paper
By Daniel Clarke
Located in Yardley, PA
I looked out from my window, and I saw Venice, my Venice, naked in the sun— Sad, faded, and unutterably forlorn!— But still unutterably beautiful. For days and days I wandered up and down— Holding my breath in awe and ecstasy,— Following my husband to familiar haunts, Making acquaintance with his well-loved friends, Whose faces I had only seen in dreams And books and photographs and his careless talk. For days and days—with sunny hours of rest And musing chat, in that cool room of ours, Paved with white marble, on the Grand Canal; For days and days—with happy nights between, Half-spent, while little Katie lay asleep Out on the balcony, with the moon and stars. O Venice, Venice!—with thy water-streets— Thy gardens bathed...
