Content & Subject

Row Houses in Spring by P. Buckley Moss is a signed, numbered limited edition giclée from the Moss Spring Collection, also featured in the Landscape Collection and Row House Collection. This radiant piece celebrates the timeless beauty of historic row houses, their stately facades glowing in soft shades of stone, blue, and brick. In front of them, a lively field of wildflowers blooms in vivid purples, pinks, and blues, signaling the renewal and vibrancy of springtime.

The composition perfectly balances the permanence of architecture with the fleeting joy of nature’s seasonal gifts. Moss captures not only the elegance of these tall, narrow homes but also the sense of community, continuity, and charm they embody. With the flowers swaying in the foreground, the piece is alive with freshness, growth, and the optimism of a new season.

Style & Technique

As a giclée, Row Houses in Spring showcases every intricate detail of Moss’s brushwork and color palette with museum-quality clarity. The precision of this medium highlights the soft texture of the stone walls, the gentle play of light across windows, and the delicate layering of blossoms in the field.

Moss’s artistic style is unmistakable—elongated lines, simplified forms, and a harmonious blending of folk-art charm with modern sensibility. Here, she contrasts the earthy solidity of architecture with the organic rhythm of flowers, creating a composition both structured and lyrical. The vertical forms of the houses echo the tall grasses and blossoms, uniting the manmade and the natural in a single, flowing design.
