Description from the seller
This early luminous painting in oil on marouflage is by Nico Eekman. It shows a house tucked away behind tall trees in the front garden. It may be a house in Nuenen, where the artist at one time had his studio, though the work also exudes a French atmosphere.
Nikolaas Mathijs Eekman (Brussels, 9 August 1889 – Paris, 13 November 1973) was a Dutch figurative painter and illustrator. He gained recognition in France, Belgium, and the Netherlands under various names, including Nicolas Eekman, Nico Eekman, and the pseudonym Ekma. Eekman was friends with several contemporary artists, among them Piet Mondrian.
In his early oeuvre, Brabant peasant life plays an important role. From memories and impressions of his youth, he created paintings in which reality and imagination come together. In this work too, it is not so much an exact depiction of a place that is central, but rather a personal and atmospheric evocation of the landscape and the life that inspired him.
