Original artwork description:

The canal, a pale, grayish-white tone, reflecting the soft light, is the central focus. Its surface appears slightly rippled, suggesting a gentle current or a hint of rain.
Buildings line both sides of the canal, rendered in shades of muted blues, grays, and beiges. The buildings exhibit varying architectural details. Light, seemingly from lamps or the ambient glow of the evening, casts highlights within the buildings and on the canal. This gives the space a warm and inviting ambiance.
Flower baskets, predominantly with pink and red flowers, hang from windows and balconies, adding a touch of vibrancy to the scene.
Small, gondola-like boats are moored along the canal's sides. The boats are a muted blue or dark gray and appear to be partially submerged in the water.
The overall style is impressionistic, with visible brushstrokes suggesting a painterly approach to capturing the scene's atmosphere. The colors are soft and muted, creating a sense of tranquility and warmth, and a subtle light seems to permeate through the scene. The painting appears to emphasize the soft light and the feeling of a late day or evening.

Materials used:

oil on canvas
