Description from the seller

This portrait was made in 2004 by Erwin Olaf as part of a series of portraits of Dutch-M Moroccan youths and adults in the Netherlands. In this series Olaf portrays his subjects in a striking yet respectful manner, with identity, culture and personal appearance at the center. As is often the case in his work, he combines a carefully staged style with a strong human presence.

Erwin Olaf (1959–2023) was an internationally renowned Dutch photographer, known for his meticulously staged photography in which every detail was carefully directed. Themes such as beauty, sexuality, identity and transience played an important role in his work. He gained worldwide recognition and, among other things, photographed the Dutch royal family.

Dimensions: 120 x 90 cm
Signed and dated on the back
Edition: 1/5

Viewing is of course possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framery, celebrating its 85th anniversary this year. We also employ restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, please let us know."}
