ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "TRANQUILITY"
⚜ Oil on canvas ⚜ Hand signed lower left ⚜ Frameless display
ARCHITECTURAL GARDEN STUDY IN SUNLIT STILLNESS
In Tranquility, Robert Kenneth White captures a moment of quiet illumination in a Mediterranean-style garden. A classical terracotta urn rests amid wildflowers and trimmed hedges, framed by palm fronds, stucco walls, and pale blue shutters. The painting balances bright floral textures with deep shadow, inviting viewers into a peaceful courtyard retreat.
As the artist reflects, “This painting was inspired by the timeless beauty of southern France, and the wonderful homes that one finds there.” That inspiration shines through in both the subject and atmosphere—an evocation of warmth, elegance, and enduring charm.
Known for his mastery of architectural scenes and natural light, White renders this composition with both structural clarity and painterly softness. The glowing focal point and contrasting cool shade exemplify his skill at evoking calm and stillness through light and design.
