Description from the seller

This triptych is created by the Dutch artist Leo Schepens. They are three works of 40x15 cm. His inspiration comes from the many visits to the small Romanesque village churches in the French countryside, in the Haute Saintonge region. These medieval structures from the 11th and 12th centuries have withstood the test of time for centuries, yet they carry the traces of their history visibly with them. It is precisely this wear, this “veil of time,” that forms for Schepens an inexhaustible source of inspiration.

A fascination with signs and symbols from different cultures and traditions forms a second important layer in his work. Schepens incorporates this symbolism intuitively, often within a central composition, as if the viewer is invited to enter an unknown, mysterious world — a world in which we must find our own relationship.

His work suggests that there is more than the visible, material reality: a larger, elusive world that reveals itself to those who delve into philosophy, psychology, astrology, alchemy, anthroposophy, music or mathematics — and of course also into art itself.

Viewings are, of course, possible. In addition we have our own in-house framing shop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore we employ restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, we would of course be happy to hear from you."}
