A beautiful impressionistic river scene by Belgian painter, Robert Colot (1927-1993). Two barges are meandering their way along a river before a colourful industrial cityscape. While several cranes punctuate the last of the evening’s light.

Robert Colot was known for his depictions of working-class figures and urban landscapes. He trained in Brussels and was a quiet man who preferred to work alone.

The painting is signed in the lower right and housed within a fine period frame with shell centres and pierced foliate corners.
