Title: Venice Canal Scene With Figure And Reflections Original Watercolour Painting
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed
Size: 11.75 inches (height) x 16.5 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 evocative watercolour captures a quiet, moody moment along a Venetian canal, with a solitary figure standing near the water’s edge. The scene is framed by two contrasting buildings: to the left, a tall, shadowed façade painted in deep ochres and greens; to the right, a sunlit pink structure with a distinctive red roof and softly abstracted windows. The composition is bold and impressionistic, with the canal’s reflective surface pulling the two halves of the image together.
Though the brushwork is loose and expressive, the artist demonstrates remarkable control in conveying depth and architecture through colour and light alone. The dark vertical pole bisecting the scene adds a striking compositional tension, anchoring the figure in the right foreground and suggesting the presence of mooring equipment or a lighting structure. The palette transitions from cool shadows to warm highlights, evoking both the serenity and quiet complexity of a Venetian side canal.
This piece is a beautiful example of Herbert’s ability to distil an entire atmosphere into a few confident strokes. Viewers are invited into the space between buildings and water, where solitude meets urban vibrancy. Ideal for collectors who appreciate minimal detail with maximum feeling, or for anyone seeking a contemplative addition to a travel-themed interior.

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...
