About this motif
Magnificent stairwells were the showpiece of prestigious buildings. Even in decay, columns and railings bear witness to their former ambition.
The canvas "Awakening" (30 x 50 cm) depicts a light-flooded, abandoned stairwell with columns. A slender column supports the arches in the middle of the picture. Remnants of old painting show on the vault. At 30 x 50 cm the canvas also fits narrow wall spaces, hallways or the area beside a bookshelf.
