Description from the seller
In this artwork we see a human figure rendered with loose, expressive brushstrokes. The purple, pink and red colors flow into one another and splash across the paper in several places, making the work feel spontaneous and emotional. The person is not depicted realistically or in detail, but rather as a vulnerable, almost mysterious presence. The large amount of white surrounding the figure enhances the sense of isolation and ensures that all attention goes to the posture and emotion of the person.
Anton Heyboer (1924–2005) was a Dutch artist who became known for his paintings, drawings, and especially his etchings. His work is often rough, expressive, and highly personal. He used art to express his ideas, feelings, and life experiences, developing his own distinctive visual language with figures, lines, signs, and symbols. Heyboer was also known for his unconventional lifestyle and lived and worked for many years in Den Ilp. His art and way of life were closely intertwined, giving his work a very personal character.
Dimensions of the work with frame: 94 x 73 cm
Dimensions of the work without the frame: 70 x 50 cm
Viewing is, of course, possible.
