Description from the seller
Louis Nagelkerke (Eindhoven, February 3, 1949) has been working as a professional artist since 1980. Louis is a versatile artist who is never without inspiration or new ideas. Movement, beauty, and mysticism are characteristic of his artworks. He is especially inspired by life in the Indonesian archipelago and is fascinated by the mystery of its inhabitants, both human and animal. His inspiration often relates to the Eastern person—musicians, dancers, and female dancers, particularly the people of the beautiful island of Bali. People from the theater are also frequently his models. The subjects of his work are as varied and rich as life itself. But his love for Eastern culture and religion, music, and dance is always present. Louis Nagelkerke is especially known for his highly realistic depictions of people—bringing out the beauty in humans and animals. This is the artist's credo, aiming to make the world more beautiful with his paintings. He is capable of capturing the essence of the image in posture and atmosphere with precision.
This work features a resting female model, lying in a relaxed pose with her arms behind her head. Her eyes are closed, creating a sense of serenity and inner calm. The subtle highlights on the body and the surrounding background enhance the play of sunlight and warmth, characteristic of the Bali atmosphere. The simplicity of the composition, combined with expressive contours and colorful nuances, vividly captures the natural beauty and tranquil aura of the model—an exemplary illustration of Nagelkerke's ability to capture humanity and atmosphere in a single glance.
Dimensions of work with frame: 81 x 54 cm
Dimensions of work without frame: 66 x 40 cm
