About the Item
Title: Venice Grand Canal Waterfront Study Signed Watercolour Painting
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on paper
Size: 11.75 inches (height) x 9.5 inches (width)
Condition: good, with some signs on wear consistent with aging
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: This atmospheric watercolour captures a moody view across the Grand Canal in Venice, likely seen in the early morning or late afternoon haze. The scene is pared back and fluid, with forms suggested rather than defined: the domes and spires of Venice emerge on the horizon in a wash of grey-green tones, while a single ochre-yellow roof draws the eye across the composition.
To the left, a rust-toned building frames the scene and plunges downward into water, casting reflections in deep ink washes. Figures or mooring posts are faintly visible in the lower left, giving a sense of scale and anchoring the canal’s edge. The right-hand buildings are left mostly undefined, giving the piece a dreamlike and impressionistic quality. A small vessel floats in the centre, painted in a single swift stroke, adding balance to the open space of the canal.
This is likely a plein-air or travel study — a visual impression taken quickly on location, allowing Tony Herbert’s brushwork to speak freely. The loose composition and muted palette suggest mood over detail, evoking the quiet majesty of Venice without fixating on exact geography. A sensitive and restrained painting that invites close inspection and contemplation.

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...

"Santa Maria della Salute I" - Venice - Watercolor Painting - Turner
By Mclean Jenkins
Located in Atlanta, GA
"Santa Maria della Salute I" is a watercolor painting of the Santa Maria della Salute church and minor basilica in Venice, Italy. This work features hues of blue, orange, green and yellow. This piece is 14.5 by 17.75 inches framed.
McLean Jenkins is inspired by the work of JMW Turner, Richard Diebenkorn and Louis Khan.
McLean Jenkins is a practicing architect with McAlpine and his work derives from and celebrates the classical forms of his trade. Working in graphite, ink and watercolor, McLean employs a gestural approach that frees his hand to explore a subject’s essence. His compositions rely on the quick, decisive sketch and are then given over to the whims and splashes of watercolor. Spontaneity, movement and spirit are all emphasized and his drawings collectively form their own narrative of his passion for architecture.
The city of Venice has captured McLean’s imagination since his first trip there as a 12 year old boy. Over the years a kind of courtship with the city has evolved, and its impact has motivated and sustained his development as both architect and artist. His work depicting the city has been recognized within the architectural profession by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation in its award to McLean of the J. Neel Reid...
