Plein Air Florence: Watercolor Street Artist

An urban plein-air scene in Florence: a street artist sits at a wooden easel on a sunlit cobblestone alley, painting Florence with watercolors. The artist wears a light linen shirt with rolled sleeves, a straw hat, and a scarf; a metal watercolor tin, brushes, and a damp sponge rest on a small, weathered table. Several finished watercolor paintings hang on the easel's display rack, depicting glowing scenes of the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, and the Arno River in soft, translucent washes. In the background, Florence's terracotta rooftops, the cathedral dome, and distant cypress trees bathed in golden hour light; crowds stroll by, a gelato cart nearby, pigeons fluttering. The artwork style is painterly and luminous, with pigment bleeds and feathered edges characteristic of watercolor, capturing Florence's charm and the street's gentle atmosphere.
