Description from the seller

"The Attic Years" is part of the series "House-4-Souls" and tells the story of a family from Elburg who buys a dilapidated city farm in the center of the historic town of Elburg. It took seven years to complete the project. During all that time, the family lived in the attic. The parents spent every free minute making the house livable again. In the photo, the three girls are seen posing in the house's hallway. In 2019, this print was part of the exhibition held in the old farm.
It is a print on Ilford Galerie Prestige, mounted on 2mm PVC. Size 58x45. Edition 1 of 12.

Ursula van de Bunte's work escapes pure photography and takes root in the long tradition of
The pictorial. With a balanced composition, it evokes the spirit of.
The renaissance, but decisively placed in the twenty-first century.
Ursula's studio is located in a monumental building on the IJssel in the Hanseatic city of Kampen. She exhibits her work in museums, galleries, and at international art fairs.

Seller's Story

Passionate, sensitive and an eye for detail, light and colour, would be a nice description for Ursula's working method. She is a perfectionist, enthusiastic and diligent, she will only be satisfied when the well-known WOW factor has been achieved. With her artworks she tries to bring her subjects forward in the purest way. Ursula transforms objects into powerful still lifes and the portraits are a reflection of a bygone time, in which every now and then a sprinkle of modern life is incorporated. Her work is unconventional and the use of light tends towards her sources of inspiration; the paintings of Jacques-Louis David, Rembrandt and Caravaggio. As a photographer, Ursula also tries to distinguish herself through diversity in her work and, in addition to individual creations, she also makes series, in which she lets multiple images tell one story. She was discovered, among other things, with her intriguing, tranquil still lifes: the series Plastic Vegetables’ and the series ‘House-4-Sale’. These works have been awarded various prizes, including for the series “de 100 van Rooyackers.” Exhibitions: 2024 Municipal Museum Kampen 2023 ANNO museum Zwolle 2019 Foundation Zwolle 2019 WG Art Amsterdam 2017 Warehouse 6 Amsterdam 2016-present Galerie ANNEE, Solo, Group exhibitions 2016 from Abbemuseum Publications: Stentor-Haarlems Dagblad, HP de Tijd, GUP New Dutch Photography Prices include, 2017 Public Prize Photographic Design 2015 PIA d'or Award second prize Portrait 2021 Fine Art Photography Awards Portrait
