Description: This evocative mid-20th-century watercolor by French artist Anne Marie Migette Perard captures a serene river scene in the French countryside. A quiet white boat, flying a small French flag, floats in the foreground beneath overhanging trees, while a low bridge stretches across the calm water in the distance. On the far bank, clusters of terracotta-roofed houses dot the lush hillside, evoking a peaceful village ambiance. Perard’s brushwork brings the landscape to life through soft, layered strokes in hues of green, blue, and lavender, characteristic of French Post-Impressionism. The scene’s tranquility is underscored by the mirror-like reflections on the river’s surface and the gentle bend of the trees lining the riverbank. With its blend of architecture, nature, and human presence, this piece beautifully encapsulates rural France’s timeless charm. Paintings depicting French riverscapes—especially those with identifiable details such as boats, flags, and classic village architecture—are sought after by collectors looking for evocative, transportive works with both decorative and historical appeal.
