Reflections of Paris

About this painting

This work depicts the recognisable silhouette of Paris, with the Eiffel Tower rising at the centre of the composition and reflected in the surface of the water. The architectural form is rendered concisely, without excessive detail, allowing the viewer to focus on the overall rhythm and the vertical element that balances the pictorial space.

The colour scheme is built on a subtle transition from the warm yellow and greenish tones of the horizon to cooler shades of blue in the sky and water. The reflection in the water is painted with free, expressive brushstrokes that create a sense of movement and change, giving the scene a living breath.

The work conveys a calm, almost meditative mood. There is no urban bustle here: Paris appears as a space of silence and contemplation, where a familiar image becomes an invitation to look closely and pause inwardly.

This painting invites the viewer not merely to recognise the place, but to experience its atmosphere: the light, the reflections and the state in which the city reveals itself through water and colour.
