About this motif
The appeal of the morbid lies in the interplay of transience and dignity. Even in decay, old villas retain their elegance.
The canvas "Old Villa" (60 x 90 cm) shows an abandoned hall with columns and tall windows. On the right you can make out the start of a staircase leading into the unknown. Light and shadow are distributed almost symmetrically across both halves of the picture. At 60 x 90 cm the motif becomes an eye-catcher above the dining table or in the entrance area.
