About the Item

Title: Venice Canal Bridge Scene With Flower Boxes And Reflections Original Watercolour By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed Size: 11.25 inches (height) x 15 inches (width) Condition: good, will some signs on wear consistent with aging Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: This captivating original watercolour captures a quiet corner of Venice where daily life unfolds above glistening canal waters. The scene is framed by a charming footbridge leading to a pink-hued palazzo with traditional shuttered windows, while a neighbouring façade blooms with flower boxes in rich reds and greens. On the bridge, two softly rendered figures pause mid-stroll, evoking the city’s romantic, unhurried rhythm. The composition is intimate and immersive, inviting the viewer to step into this hidden side-street view away from the bustle of the Grand Canal. The brushwork is loose yet precise, particularly in the shifting reflections of the buildings on the water’s surface and the iron balustrade of the bridge. A small wall sign—“Sestiere di Cannaregio”—roots the image in one of Venice’s oldest districts, known for its quieter canals and authentic atmosphere. The artist expertly captures the city’s light: warm and ambient, yet tinged with the coolness of stone and water. A subtle play of shadows and washed textures gives the piece both spontaneity and solidity, suggesting it was painted either en plein air or from strong visual memory. A perfect piece for lovers of Venice, travel, or European architectural painting, this watercolour offers a serene and poetic interpretation of a timeless city.

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...
