Original artwork description:

“Beneath the Dome of Lyon” captures the harmonious balance between classical architecture and the serene rhythm of the Saône River. The historic dome of the Hôtel-Dieu — one of Lyon’s most emblematic landmarks — rises gracefully above the stone bridge and treetops, becoming the focal point of this atmospheric composition.

Soft washes, transparent layers, and expressive brushstrokes reflect the artist’s sensitivity to light and form, evoking a fleeting impression of place where nature and structure coexist. Executed on high-quality watercolor paper, the work brings calm and quiet refinement, offering a timeless presence to any interior.
