Description from the seller
This colorful print by Corneille portrays a fantastical world where humans, animals, and nature come together. In the foreground stand two human figures, while a large bird appears to be hovering above them. The striking blue tree forms the centerpiece of the composition and connects the different elements. The bright colors, bold black outlines, and simple shapes give the work a playful and almost childlike feel. Birds, women, and nature recur often in Corneille’s work and are linked to themes such as freedom, love, and joie de vivre.
Corneille, full name Guillaume Cornelis van Beverloo (1922–2010), was a Dutch artist born in Liège. In 1948 he was one of the founders of the international artists’ group CoBrA, together with artists such as Karel Appel and Constant. The CoBrA artists sought to work spontaneously and freely, drawing inspiration from children’s drawings and non-Western art. Corneille later developed a highly recognizable style with clear colors, strong black lines, and recurring motifs such as women, birds, cats, flowers, and landscapes. His work often has a cheerful, liberated, and imaginative appearance.
