Description from the seller

Jan Cremer – Tuscany
Woodcut print in a limited and signed edition. In this work Jan Cremer imagines the Tuscan landscape with powerful, expressive lines and a strong sense of rhythm and light. The composition breathes the Mediterranean atmosphere that is so characteristic of his Italian period.

A characteristic graphic work in which nature, energy and craft come together.
Jan Cremer, writer and artist, was born in 1940 in Enschede. His father died in 1942, which meant that Jan's upbringing was entirely the responsibility of his mother. Jan's mother, Rosza Csordás Szomorkay, was Hungarian and studied at the conservatory in Budapest. After the war, Jan Cremer was placed in foster families and colony houses by child protection. In the fifties he had various jobs, served with the marines and spent some time as a sailor on the inland waters. In 1958 he followed a few months of training at the art academy in Arnhem and The Hague. Cremer lived on Ibiza for a while and left in 1964 for New York. Thereafter he alternated living in America and Europe. As a writer, Cremer became instantly famous with "I Jan Cremer" (1964). It is a picaresque novel with sex, violence and adventure. Consequently, the literary value of his authorship was not held in very high esteem by everyone. The novel remained in libraries for a long time. "I Jan Cremer" appeared in many languages. In addition to novels, Jan Cremer wrote travelogues and plays. The art of Jan Cremer consists of paintings, graphics and gouaches and often depicts Dutch, and also Italian, landscapes in bright colors.

Dimensions of the work with frame: 112 x 139 cm
Dimensions of the work without frame: 83 x 111 cm

Furthermore, we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, of course we would be happy to hear from you.
