Red on Brick in East London (Oil on Shikishi)

Ships from Japan.
In Red on Brick, Sébastien Coueffic distills a typical East London street scene into a vivid composition of color blocks and bold contrasts. The red brick façade dominates the foreground, casting deep shadows across a soft pink pavement, while the bay windows of the adjacent house reflect the soft morning light in shades of lavender and white. Painted on a traditional Japanese shikishi board, the work belongs to Coueffic’s Architecture series, where everyday cityscapes become moments of quiet geometry and poetic rhythm. This piece celebrates the meeting of light, material, and urban texture.
