AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

'There is no direction' and 'everything is repetition,' replied Toon Koster when asked which movement he belonged to and what subjects he preferred to paint. Trained at the academy in Rotterdam, Koster developed into a versatile artist: he painted, was a graphic artist, craftsperson, and enameler, and also created important murals. In an impressionistic manner, he painted landscapes, village and cityscapes, portraits, and still lifes. His scenes are often painted in dark earthy tones with broad, coarse brushstrokes, creating a charged atmosphere. Koster was a member of the Dutch Federation of Visual Artists.

Canvas dimensions: 135 x 65
