About this artwork

This framed watercolour painting 32cm x 37cm vividly portrays the bustling energy of a street market in Marrakech. The scene is alive with vibrant colours, from the rich reds, oranges, and blues of the vendor stalls to the deep greens and yellows of the fruits and spices on display. The market is packed with activity—local merchants selling their wares, tourists browsing for unique finds, and locals haggling over prices. Loose sheeting provides shading above the stalls, while piles of fresh produce and baskets of fragrant spices add texture to the scene. Comes with certificate of authenticity.

The watercolour technique gives the painting a fluid, dreamy quality, with splashes of colour blending softly into one another, capturing the heat and dynamism of the marketplace. Light pours in from the open sky above, casting soft shadows that dance across the sandy ground. The painting evokes a sense of life, culture, and the vibrant spirit of Marrakech.
