Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France. Description: This serene Mid-20th Century Post-Impressionist pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard captures a luminous moment at the entrance to a French coastal port. A lone sailboat glides into the harbour, its sails softly catching the light under a gently clouded sky. In the distance, a striking white lighthouse with a red lantern stands tall on the far breakwater, guiding vessels safely ashore. Rendered in subtle washes of blues, greys, and pinks, the scene evokes the quiet anticipation of return after time at sea. The angular lines of the dock and rock-lined shore offer contrast to the smooth reflection of the water, giving the composition a dynamic yet peaceful rhythm. Perard’s mastery of pastel creates a misty, almost dreamlike atmosphere that will appeal to collectors of nautical art, vintage seascapes, and mid-century French modernism. This piece captures not just a harbour, but a mood—one of calm waters and coastal nostalgia.
