Description from the seller
Soewardja (Bandung, 1900)
Scenic view of rice paddies at sunset.
Oil on canvas
Magnificent oil on canvas by the Indonesian painter Soewardja, a prominent representative of the Mooi Indië ('Beautiful Indies') movement, an artistic trend that celebrated the natural beauty of the Dutch colonies in the early 20th century.
The composition depicts a wide landscape of flooded rice fields under twilight, with peasant figures and an elevated traditional structure, all framed by tropical vegetation and a sky in shades of gray and gold. The work conveys a profound serenity, a result of the artist's mastery of color and atmospheric perspective.
Soewardja, raised in a family environment of painters — alongside his brothers Basar and Adiwinata — developed a refined painting style that combines European sensitivity with the visual poetry of Java. His style, characterized by soft brushstrokes and subtle nuances, reflects the romantic ideal of the Mooi Indië movement, where nature becomes the protagonist and a symbol of harmony.
Signed in the lower right corner.
It presents a small cut on the canvas, visible in the photographs.
