Wet Evening on the Riva, Venice
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating gouache drawing on paper by the Scottish artist Emily Paterson Murray (1855-1934). The image transports us to the enchanting and romantic city of Venice, Italy, during a tranquil yet moody evening. The title of the work accurately describes the scene, as the riva, or waterfront, is bathed in the soft, ethereal glow of a wet evening. The drawing skillfully captures the essence of Venice, with its iconic architecture, gondolas, and the gentle lapping of the water against the shore. The buildings along the riva are depicted in rich, earthy tones, their facades reflecting the dampness of the evening. The gondolas, with their distinctive shapes and vibrant colors, glide gracefully through the water, adding to the serene atmosphere. Emily Paterson Murray's masterful use of gouache and her delicate touch bring the scene to life. The drawing is characterized by its intricate details and the artist's ability to convey the play of light and shadow on the wet surfaces. The reflections on the water add depth and dimension to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. The drawing is a testament to Emily Paterson Murray's artistic talent and her ability to capture the beauty and allure of Venice. It invites us to imagine ourselves strolling along the riva on a wet evening, taking in the sights, sounds, and smells of this magical city. This evocative work of art is a must-have for any collection focused on Venice, Italian art, or the works of Emily Paterson Murray.
