Benoit Havard’s ‘Cirencester Glow’ captures the enchanting essence of a bustling cityscape, where the historic architecture of Cirencester is bathed in a warm, golden light. This limited edition piece, measuring 71.4 × 71.4 cm framed, is a testament to Havard’s mastery of texture and colour. The artist employs a textured palette knife technique, enhanced with hand-embellished brush mark gels and oil overpaints, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The scene is alive with movement, as cars and pedestrians navigate the wet streets, reflecting the vibrant hues of the surrounding buildings. The artwork’s rich blues and yellows evoke a sense of nostalgia and warmth, making it a perfect addition to any collection. Its ability to transform a space with its luminous glow and intricate details ensures it will be a focal point in your home, inviting viewers to lose themselves in its urban charm.

About the Artist

Born in 1981 in Orléans, France, Benoît Havard began drawing and painting at the age of six. As a child, his mother used to take him to art galleries and museums where he was drawn to energetic works, such as those by the French landscape painter Michel Jouenne.
