“Sombras y Luz en Sevilla” – Shadows and Light in Seville

“Tranvía y Plaza cerca de la Universidad de Sevilla” (“Tram and Plaza near the University of Seville”)

This pastel impressionist painting by Susan Cua captures a lively street scene near the historic University of Seville in the beautiful city of Seville, Spain.

Soft yet vibrant pastel strokes bring the architecture and atmosphere of Seville to life. A warm terracotta-colored building rises on the corner, its elegant windows and curved façade reflecting the classical charm of Andalusian architecture. In the foreground, a modern tram glides quietly along the street, symbolizing the meeting of old and new that defines Seville today.

Towering green trees provide shade along the plaza, their loose impressionistic strokes creating movement and energy in the composition. Nearby, a small kiosk and pedestrians suggest the rhythm of daily life—students, locals, and visitors passing through this cultural and academic district. The Spanish flag gently waving in the background adds a subtle patriotic accent and anchors the scene firmly within its Spanish setting.

Through expressive color and light, Susan Cua captures not just a place but a feeling—the warm Mediterranean atmosphere, the calm pace of a university neighborhood, and the timeless beauty of Seville’s streets. The painting invites the viewer to pause and imagine standing in this sunlit plaza, listening to the quiet hum of the tram and the soft rustle of leaves overhead.
