This digital artwork shows a sunny summer day over the Sacré-Cœur in Paris, captured in a minimalist, almost dreamy style. The sky is clear and cloudless, in a brilliant blue that evokes the warmth and tranquillity of a summer afternoon. The Sacré-Cœur itself is rendered as a delicate pen drawing, fully coloured in warm shades of yellow. This colour choice gives the iconic structure a slightly surreal and almost golden glow, breaking away from its traditional look and giving it a fresh, artistic interpretation.
Striking in the composition are two statues - presumably angels or saints - elaborated in an intense blue-green colour. They contrast powerfully with the yellow of the basilica and immediately attract attention, acting as visual anchor points within the drawing. Their colour and position give the scene a certain symbolism, as if they are watching over the peace and harmony of the scene.
On either side of the composition, dark green trees flank the scene. Their deep green tones balance the work's colour spectrum and frame the basilica like natural columns. With the absence of people and movement, the scene exudes a quiet, contemplative atmosphere - a snapshot of calm in a city normally bustling with life. The artwork combines simplicity and colour contrast to take an innovative look at a familiar monument, inviting the viewer to pause for a moment.
