Annecy Canal and Bell Tower (2022) Original Watercolour by Liubov Samoilova

A collection of original watercolours inspired by the quiet beauty of France — from sunlit villages of Provence to historic streets, canals and hidden courtyards.
These paintings focus on atmosphere, light and colour rather than detailed realism. Transparent watercolour layers create a sense of air, warmth and movement, capturing fleeting impressions of travel and everyday life in France.
The collection combines Mediterranean architecture, old stone buildings, flowers, canals and peaceful streets into a series filled with calm summer light and European charm.

In the first picture «Canal in Annecy » size 19,5x13,5 cm there is A colourful canal scene inspired by the historic towns of Eastern France.
Pastel houses, reflections in the water and soft summer light create a romantic European atmosphere. The fluid watercolour technique enhances the feeling of movement and air, while the warm architectural palette gives the artwork a welcoming charm.
Ideal for collectors of travel-inspired art and elegant European cityscapes.


In the second picture «Bell tower of the Church of Notre-Dame-de-Liesse», measuring 18,5x12.5 cm there is a peaceful French town square with elegant historic architecture and soft morning light.
The tall church tower rises above quiet streets and sunlit facades, while loose watercolour brushstrokes preserve freshness and atmosphere.

This original painting captures the calm beauty of everyday life in France and would complement both modern and classic interiors.

Part of the “Quiet Corners of France” collection — a series of original watercolours inspired by French light, architecture and travel.
