Den Haag - 09-02-24 - An Impressionist Surrealism
EDITORS COMMENTS
This monochrome pencil drawing by Corné Akkers transports us to the heart of Den Haag, also known as The Hague in the Netherlands. The artist masterfully employs both impressionist and surrealistic techniques to create an enchanting urban landscape. At the center of the composition, a grand, historic tower stands tall against the backdrop of the city. Its intricate architecture is brought to life through Akkers' expert use of chiaroscuro, with the play of light and shadow adding depth and texture to the stone walls. Surrounding the tower, the cityscape unfolds in a series of impressionistic brushstrokes, capturing the essence of Den Haag's urban landscape. The buildings, with their unique Dutch gables, blend seamlessly into the scene, creating a harmonious blend of old and new. But what sets this drawing apart is the unexpected presence of an elephant, a nod to the surrealistic elements Akkers introduces. The majestic creature, with its wrinkled skin and expressive eyes, gazes out from the corner of the image, adding a sense of whimsy and wonder to the otherwise realistic scene. The artist's skillful use of composition and montage further enhances the overall effect, inviting the viewer to explore the intricacies of the image and uncover the hidden stories within. This print is a testament to Akkers' creative vision and his ability to blur the lines between reality and imagination.
