About this motif
The portrait format emphasises the height of the room and guides the eye from the floor via the window up to the ceiling. This creates an almost sacred effect.
The portrait canvas "Old Window" (30 x 50 cm) depicts a tall round-arched window with open casements. Dry leaves and fallen plaster lie on the floor. A remnant of curtain hangs at an angle in the middle pane. At 30 x 50 cm the canvas also fits narrow wall spaces, hallways or the area beside a bookshelf.
