About the Item

Title: British Watercolor of a Clock Tower and Village Street Scene with Figures By Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) Original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 11 x 15.25 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 charming watercolour painting captures a quintessential village street, evoking a sense of timelessness and tranquility. The composition is dominated by the central clock tower, its spire gracefully reaching skyward, framed by warm-toned buildings that line the narrow street. To the right, a building adorned with vibrant hanging flower baskets adds a pop of colour, contrasting beautifully against the soft neutral tones of the architecture. The loose, gestural brushstrokes suggest figures on the street, adding a sense of quiet activity and life to the scene. The interplay of light and shadow lends depth and warmth to the painting, guiding the viewer's eye toward the clock tower and the gentle curves of the street. This piece is a beautiful celebration of village charm, with its attention to architectural detail and the subtle suggestion of daily life unfolding within the tranquil setting.
