AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Oil painting with frame by Andree Majchrzak, Germany 1967
1. The artist: Andree Majchrzak (*1933)
Identity: He is a registered artist who often appears in the art trade with such motifs: harbor views, industrial landscapes, and cityscapes with churches.
Majchrzak captures the spirit of the 1960s, a time when industry and reconstruction were dominant themes.
2. The style: Industrial Impressionism
The picture is a prime example of late Impressionism with a strong focus on industrial realism.
Motif: We see a busy inner harbor. On the left, a massive industrial building (perhaps a mill or a warehouse) made of red brick dominates, with cargo ships in front of it. In the background, cranes and silos are visible.
Mood: This image is dynamic and rough.
The sky is moving, and the brushstrokes are wilder. It appears 'dirty' and honest – you can almost feel the soot and the noise of the harbor.
Color palette: The colors are typical of the 60s: damped brown tones, gray, ochre, and dirty white, accented by the dark black of the cranes and ships.
The technology
Brushwork: Here, primarily the brush (not just the palette knife) was used. The stroke is 'open' and sketchy. Look at the water: the reflections are painted with quick, horizontal strokes.
• Material: It is oil on hardboard. The matte gloss and the way the colors are blended together (wet-on-wet) suggest oil.
Composition: The artist uses the black lines of the cranes and ship masts graphically to structure the image. This gives the whole a certain technical strictness, which creates a beautiful contrast to the soft sky.

Seller's Story
Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies.
Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt.
To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty.
And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives.
We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy.
We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people.
