Description from the seller
"William of Orange" is a part of the series: Joan Derk van der Capellen tot den Pol. The “Appeltjes van Oranje” symbolize a statement by the Patriot. "The Dutch land is lost, if the bourgeois do not defend their rights, do not demand a say, do not arm themselves against cowardly and ambitious regents, a stadtholder without character and qualifications." With this, Joan Derk meant the Stadtholder Willem V, whom he mockingly called 'Teerbeminde'. "To the People of the Netherlands"
In 1781 JD writes his masterwork at the house “Appeltern” To the People of the Netherlands.” A hundred years later people will only know that he was the author.
It concerns a print on high-quality Canson Fibre Rag paper. The format is 48x37 cm and is mounted on 2mm PVC. It concerns the first edition of twelve copies.
Seller's Story
Passionate, sensitive and with an eye for detail, light and color, would be a nice description of Ursula's approach. She is perfectionistic, enthusiastic and diligent; she will only be satisfied when the well-known WOW factor has been achieved.
With her artworks she aims to bring her subjects forward in the purest possible way. Ursula transforms objects into powerful still lifes and the portraits are a reflection of a bygone era, where from time to time a splash of modern life is incorporated.
Her work is unconventional and the use of light leans toward her sources of inspiration: the paintings of Jacques-Louis David, Rembrandt and Caravaggio.
As a photographer Ursula also seeks to distinguish herself through diversity in her work, and beside individual creations she makes series, where multiple images tell one story. She is notably discovered with her intriguing, still lifes: the series Plastic Vegetables and the series House-4-Sale. These works have been awarded with various prizes, among them for the series “de 100 van Rooyackers.”
