AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In this work Geert-Jan Janssen pays tribute to Pablo Picasso, an artist whose visual language he has studied like no other. With a few precise, flowing blue lines, a female face emerges where simplicity and expressiveness come together. The peace dove, one of Picasso's best-known symbols, rests, as it were, on the head of the figure and links beauty with the universal idea of peace.

Although the composition clearly references Picasso's famous contour drawings from his late period, the work is more than a copy. Janssen shows his exceptional mastery of the Spanish master's language of imagery and adds his own rhythm and spontaneity. The loose, confident line betrays the hand of an artist who for years studied the styles of the great modernists.

Provenance:
- From a private collection

Viewing is of course possible. In addition we have our own in-house framing workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to use this service, we would of course be glad to hear from you.
