Title: Reflections on the Tyne – Autumn Light
Artist: Laura Bernardeschi Nelson
Medium: Oil Pastels on Paper, Varnished
Dimensions: 25 x 35 cm
Signed: Front and back
Description:
Reflections on the Tyne – Autumn Light is an original oil pastel painting by Laura Bernardeschi Nelson, inspired by the tranquil beauty of the River Tyne as it flows through Newcastle upon Tyne during a crisp autumn day.
In this richly textured and expressive work, the artist captures the vibrant reds, golds, and rusts of autumn foliage mirrored perfectly in the still water. A solitary riverside structure stands quietly on the bank, its soft white form echoed in the river’s surface — anchoring the composition and adding a sense of stillness and reflection. The intense yet harmonious color palette and the impasto textures bring the landscape to life, immersing the viewer in the fleeting warmth of an autumn afternoon.
Measuring 25 x 35 cm and varnished for protection, this piece is signed on both the front and back. It’s an evocative tribute to the poetic beauty of Northern England’s changing seasons, perfect for collectors who are drawn to atmospheric scenes and emotional landscapes.
