EDITORS COMMENTS
Gisbert Combaz's captivating print, titled "Rough Sea," showcases the Belgian artist's distinctive Art Nouveau style, created in the early 1900s. Born in 1869, Combaz was not only known for his graphic art but also for his scholarly interest in Far Eastern art. This influence is apparent in the bold outlines, stylized patterning, and unusually cropped compositions found in his work. Combaz's mastery of line and form is evident in the dynamic waves depicted in "Rough Sea," their crests and troughs rendered with a sense of energy and movement. The artist's use of contrasting textures, from the rough, choppy water to the smooth, flat areas of the sky, adds depth and dimension to the image. Despite the turbulent scene, there is a sense of harmony and balance in the composition, achieved through the careful placement of the various elements. The bold, black outlines of the waves and the stylized, abstract patterns of the water create a sense of rhythm and flow, while the cropped composition draws the viewer's eye to the heart of the action. Combaz's background in Far Eastern art is evident in the way he approaches the representation of the sea, with its bold, graphic lines and stylized patterning. This influence, combined with his mastery of Art Nouveau techniques, makes "Rough Sea" a standout example of the artist's unique vision and style.
