Description:
Title: Mid-Century French Harbour Scene With Colourful Sailboats Docked at Port by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977)
Medium: Watercolor on unframed paper
Size: 10.5 inches (height) x 14.5 inches (width) Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.
Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France.
Description: In this expressive and light-filled maritime composition, Anne Marie Migette Perard captures the calm bustle of a working harbour with two brightly coloured sailboats moored beside a weathered stone quay. The painting brims with joyful detail—flags flutter from the tall masts, vibrant red and ochre sails hang slack from their rigging, and the reflections dance gently across the water’s surface. The artist’s confident brushwork and fluid line convey a masterful understanding of movement and form. Areas of soft pastel watercolour bleed into one another with atmospheric subtlety, while selective use of gouache adds density and contrast to the boats' hulls and cabins. There’s a balance of geometry and spontaneity, typical of her unique take on modernist French landscape and marine painting. With fishing boats and harbour towns gaining strong traction among collectors of coastal modernism, this work is ideal for anyone seeking a striking vintage watercolour to evoke the romance of the sea and the vibrancy of life at the water’s edge.
