Description
The first rays of morning light reveal the now obsolete watermill; A charming testimony to the combination of human innovation and nature's beauty. Nestled along the clay-rich bank of the gently moving stream, the now still wheel seems suspended in time. The sunlight streams warm ochre over the scene.
The warm browns and greens of this painting make it a great choice in rustic decors. The elegant detail and theme brings a classic vintage feel. Quiet yet crisp and sparkling this piece will be a soothing focal point.

Waterwheels like this one were used in the production of flour and even electricity throughout the world during the industrial revolution and as late as the 1960s. Today only a few demonstration examples remain in operation for historic appreciation.
