Description
"Place Sathonay Lyon" by Mona Edulesco.
Original watercolor painting on a high quality 300 g/m - 140lb Acid Free Arches watercolor paper 20x20cm.
This is a painting that I made on the spot in the summer of 2020. During my walks through Lyon I always love to stop and sit down on a bench in this charming square. The atmosphere and the light are so special and inspiring.
----------------------
The Place Sathonay is a square located in the 1st arrondissement of Lyon, France, at the bottom of hill of La Croix-Rousse, in La Martinière quarter. It was named after Nicolas-Marie-Jean-Claude Fay de Sathonay, mayor of Lyon from 1805 to 1812, as a tribute for all the importants works undertaken under his presidency. The square is currently the third largest square in Lyon and belongs to the zone classified as World Heritage Site by UNESCO. According to Lyon geography agrégé Jean Pelletier, it is "one of the most interesting squares of Lyon", because of its harmonious proportions, its boundaries composed of buildings with beautiful 1920s facades, and its plantations, which brings "a charm tinged of poetry" and give it the appearance of a village square.

A truly lovely watercolor, and I like the line work that defines the shapes, but not so much that it is left up to the viewer to fill in the details. like/f
