AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In Zomer van Stilte, Nan Laar captures an intimate and timeless moment at the waterline.
A woman is lost in thought, while a child gently nestles against her back, a pose that radiates both trust and protection. The composition is open and airy, with a large expanse of light and water that gives the scene a dreamy tranquility.

Laar works here in her characteristic expressive and figurative style: broad, loose brushstrokes, transparent layers, and color fields that flow between realism and poetic abstraction. The combination of cool blue shades, warm skin tones, and soft golden light gives the work an almost cinematic atmosphere.

The painting breathes closeness, inner silence, and a deep human tenderness.
Summer of Silence invites the viewer to take a moment in that gentle in-between space, where time slows down and where a sense of connection becomes palpable without words.
A work that fits perfectly within Nan Laar's poetic and emotionally layered oeuvre.

Dimensions: 110 x 160 cm
Medium: oil paint on canvas
Not ready to hang: no, the painting is rolled up and needs to be re-stretched by your local framer.
Attention! The paintings are freshly out of the studio and in oil paint, so the oil paint is not fully cured yet. Some caution is advised!
Signature: front side, also signed Certificate Year: 2025
Shipping: rolled in a tube
Sending rolled, extra large formats is safer and more environmentally friendly than sending ready-made works. The canvas can easily be stretched by a framer at your location.
