Provencal stone fountain 55x46 cm

" In the golden hush of a Provençal afternoon, where the sun clings to every stone and the cicadas hum their endless song, a fountain stands,still and eternal,cradled by the sun-warmed wall of a garden cloaked in ivy. With confident, textured strokes of the palette knife, the artist has breathed life into this humble stone sentinel, each edge sculpted with light and shadow, as if carved by time itself.

Water spills gently from the iron spout, a silver thread of coolness in the shimmering heat, its delicate trickle breaking the silence like a whispered promise of relief. Below, the basin holds a small, green-tinted pool,a mirror to the languid leaves that spill down the ochre wall like a cascade of emerald flames.

Terracotta pots, one crowned with jubilant pink blossoms, the other with sun-kissed yellows, guard the fountain like votive offerings to the gods of shade and stillness. Their colors burst against the backdrop of earthen tones, anchoring the moment in joy and bloom.

This is no mere fountain, it's a pause in the fevered rhythm of summer. A breath. A memory. The scent of lavender rides the air, and the cool splash of water invites your fingertips, as if to remind you that beauty is not always loud, but often lingers quietly where sun meets stone, and time runs slow."
