Shadows of Summer by Robert Harrison

This artwork by Robert Harrison depicts a sunlit Mediterranean-style alleyway that radiates peace and charm. The scene shows a narrow cobbled street, its stone pathway leading the eye gently toward an arched passage in the distance. On either side, whitewashed walls with soft shadows create a serene backdrop for the abundant greenery. Bright, cascading flowering plants—vivid reds, oranges, and greens—spill over balconies and window sills, bringing the street to life with color and warmth. The sunlight filters down into the lane, highlighting the textures of the walls and the gentle curve of the street, evoking the feeling of a lazy summer afternoon in a quiet southern European village. The composition has a timeless quality—capturing the tranquil beauty of everyday life in a picturesque village, where stillness and nature blend in perfect harmony.
