About the Item

This atmospheric watercolour by Edouard Leverd captures an iconic view of Paris along the River Seine, with the soaring spire and twin towers of Notre-Dame Cathedral rising prominently beyond the bridge. Painted in June 1920, the work conveys the quiet rhythm of Parisian life along the quays: figures strolling by the riverbank, parasols raised against the sun, and boats moored at the water’s edge. Leverd’s handling of the medium is both fluid and precise, with washes of grey and ochre building the softly clouded sky, contrasted by sharper architectural lines in the bridge and cathedral. The spire of Notre-Dame draws the eye upward, anchoring the composition in both history and place. Beneath, the subtle animation of the foreground figures and boats infuses the work with lived experience, balancing monumental architecture with scenes of everyday life. The painting is housed in a vintage carved frame, its softly distressed surface enhancing the historic atmosphere of the piece while preserving its period character. Together, frame and painting evoke a timeless image of Paris, both romantic and enduring.
