Represented by Red Rag Gallery, Douglas Gray’s Our Little Corner of Venice offers an intimate, atmospheric view of the city’s quieter side. Rather than focusing on Venice’s grand landmarks, Gray Read more
turns his attention to a more personal, human-scale moment — a secluded corner where architecture, light, and reflection come together in perfect harmony. The painting is suffused with Gray’s signature luminosity. Soft Venetian light drifts across the scene, catching the edges of façades.
The composition is deliberately understated: a handful of architectural details, and the subtle glow of life unfolding just out of sight. This restraint allows the viewer to feel the stillness and contemplative charm that define Venice away from its bustling thoroughfares.
Gray’s meticulous handling of tone and reflection transforms the scene into something both familiar and dreamlike. Our Little Corner of Venice captures the essence of the city not through spectacle, but through atmosphere — a moment of calm that invites the viewer to linger. It stands as a beautifully observed work within the Red Rag collection, showcasing the artist’s ability to elevate everyday corners of the world into spaces of quiet reverie.
