Picture of the harbor is reminiscent of impressionist painting with boats and jetty
Calm, movement and color on the water in impressionist painting
The painting, Bild vom Hafen is reminiscent of impressionist painting and is a poetic depiction of maritime tranquillity - and at the same time a painterly snapshot full of movement. The composition shows two boats moored to a simple jetty, embedded in a vibrating sea of Turquoise, blue and shades of gray. The scenery is loose, almost sketchy and yet atmospherically dense. The focus is not on the detail, but on the feeling - the Experience a quiet morning or a cloudy afternoon by the water.
The artist - in the tradition of modern Impressionism - dispenses with precise lines. Instead, she uses a free brushstroke to create light reflections, color rhythms and reflections that bring the water to life. The reflection of the boats in the water appears refracted, in layers of Green, ochre, blue and whitelike an echo of the present in a moving medium.
Reduced forms, full effect
The actual motif - boats on the jetty - is told almost in passing. And this is precisely where the power of the picture lies: it opens up a space in which viewers can locate their own memories. The figures are only hinted at, as shadows or silhouettes, and yet the work tells of human presence - of waiting, arriving or letting go.
The colors appear deliberately reduced, but are nevertheless powerful due to the lively application. The balance between cool shades and the warm, rusty line of the jetty is particularly striking - a bridge between land and water, between static and current.
