Painted in oil on canvas, Sloane Square with Statue showcases Alex Rennie’s masterful approach to realism cityscape painting, where light and composition come together to capture the essence of place. The familiar London landmark, framed by stately trees and grand architecture, is bathed in the soft glow of afternoon sunlight. The fountain’s gentle motion contrasts beautifully with the stillness of the surrounding scene, inviting the viewer into this tranquil urban oasis.
The colour palette blends luminous blues, warm brick tones, and dappled greens, perfectly evoking the warmth of the city in summer. Rennie’s brushwork is both precise and expressive — detailed enough to render the architecture faithfully, yet painterly enough to convey atmosphere and emotion. Through his subtle handling of light and perspective, he transforms a well-known square into a serene, almost poetic vision of city life.
