Description: This beautifully detailed watercolor captures a historic arched stone bridge spanning a peaceful river, with soft reflections dancing on the water’s surface. The bridge features a central structure with arched openings, hinting at its age and storied past. In the background, a quaint townscape with pale blue and white buildings completes the scene, adding depth and atmosphere. Subtle splashes of color from the figures crossing the bridge bring life to this serene setting, while the artist’s expert brushwork brings out the texture and weathered character of the bridge. A lovely piece for those drawn to European architectural subjects and tranquil river scenes.
