Sunlit Mediterranean Village – Manel Plana

This watercolor painting by Manel Plana depicts a sunlit architectural view of a Mediterranean village. The composition focuses on a group of buildings with arches, sloping rooftops and a mountainous backdrop. Rendered in a soft, earthy palette with loose, atmospheric brushstrokes, the work captures the textures and forms of the built environment with simplicity and fluidity. Signed “M. Plana” in the lower right corner.

Known for his quick brushwork and expressive compositions, Plana often portrays vernacular architecture and sunlit streets, evoking a sense of place through light and shadow. His mastery of the watercolor medium is evident in the fluidity of the washes and the subtle gradations of color.

The silver-toned frame shows minor signs of wear and aging.
