Peter van Lint (1609-1690), Attributed to - Escena mitológica

La obra presenta un contraste dramático entre luz y sombra, donde la claridad resalta lo sagrado, mientras que la oscuridad envuelve lo terrenal y lo doloroso. Un vacío central atrae la atención, simbolizando el sacrificio y la trascendencia, mientras que la escena se encuentra delimitada por una atmósfera opresiva, que subraya la gravedad del momento. El uso del espacio es tenso, con una sensación de confinamiento que amplifica el significado de lo representado. Los colores, cuidadosamente elegidos, juegan un papel crucial: los tonos cálidos sugieren lo divino y lo eterno, mientras que los fríos evocan la mortalidad y el sufrimiento. La luz, que parece surgir de una fuente invisible, baña algunos elementos, contrastando con la penumbra que rodea la escena, creando una dualidad que refleja la lucha entre el bien y el mal, la vida y la muerte. El fondo se disuelve en una niebla indefinida, dejando al espectador en un estado de ambigüedad, como si la realidad de la escena estuviera más allá de lo tangible. El equilibrio entre lo figurativo y lo abstracto da una sensación de intemporalidad, invitando a la reflexión sobre lo sagrado, lo eterno, y la naturaleza efímera de la existencia humana. Dimensiones totales: 120x92cm ATENCIÓN: este cuadro sólo será presentado a subasta una única vez. **Es importante destacar que el marco de la obra no está incluido en este envío.

Peter van Lint (1609-1690), Attributed to - Escena mitológica


The work presents a dramatic contrast between light and shadow, where light highlights the sacred, while darkness envelops the earthly and the painful. A central void draws attention, symbolizing sacrifice and transcendence, while the scene is delimited by an oppressive atmosphere, which underlines the gravity of the moment. The use of space is tense, with a sense of confinement that amplifies the meaning of what is represented.

Carefully chosen colours play a crucial role: warm tones suggest the divine and the eternal, while cold ones evoke mortality and suffering. Light, which seems to emerge from an invisible source, bathes some elements, contrasting with the darkness surrounding the scene, creating a duality that reflects the struggle between good and evil, life and death.

The background dissolves into an indefinite mist, leaving the viewer in a state of ambiguity, as if the reality of the scene were beyond the tangible. The balance between the figurative and the abstract gives a sense of timelessness, inviting reflection on the sacred, the eternal, and the ephemeral nature of human existence.

Total dimensions: 120x92cm
