Nuit sur la Rivière Painting

An atmospheric riverside landscape painted on a wood panel. The palette is deep and muted, with soft charcoal, umber, and gentle amber highlights where light meets water. The silhouettes of buildings and boats slip into the distance, giving the piece a quiet, dusk-like calm.

Its unusually petite scale makes it especially rare — pieces like this were seldom painted at such intimate dimensions. Sourced in France, it carries that unmistakable European moodiness that feels both historic and quietly romantic. Perfect for slipping onto a shelf, layering into a vignette, or hanging slightly off-center above a bedside — a moody little piece that brings depth without asking for attention.
