AI-assisted summary
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 human. 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 recurring. Louis Nagelkerke is especially known for his highly realistic depictions of people, capturing 'the beauty in humans and animals.' That is the artist's credo, aiming to make the world more beautiful with his paintings. He is capable of accurately capturing the essence of a figure in posture and atmosphere.
In this work, his love for music, theatrical presence, and subtle humanity come together in a remarkable way. Against a backdrop of colorful stained glass, Nagelkerke depicts two women in an intimate and still scene. One plays a cello with concentrated tenderness, while the other, half turned and half relaxed, exudes an elegant calm. The warm skin tones, rich fabrics, and the subtle play of light and shadow emphasize the sensual, almost meditative atmosphere. The combination of realism and symbolism – visible in details such as the peacock feather – gives the piece a layered meaning and a timeless appeal.
