AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This silkscreen by Harr Scheffer from 1984 shows a highly simplified, almost abstract landscape composed of broad, gently undulating fields of color.

Almost all recognizable details have been omitted, making color, space, and rhythm determine the composition above all.

The subtle transitions and the tranquil color palette give the work a quiet, almost dreamlike atmosphere

Harr Scheffer (1937–2016) was a Dutch visual artist and graphic artist. In his work, landscape played an important role, as he often simplified the visible reality into clear, almost abstract compositions. Especially in his graphic work, he used sharply bounded color fields and a balanced distribution of flat areas. His subjects are usually sober and still: houses, fields, and other landscape elements are not depicted realistically, but transformed into shapes and colors.

Thus his work sits on an interesting boundary between figuration and geometric abstraction.
