  • #32 Insurance at height

    #32 Insurance at height

    Perched high on a steel framework, a startled worker clings to the structure as wind, birds, and dangling lines add to the sense of vertigo. Below and beside him, the scene turns theatrical: a smiling woman in a bright red dress leans in with a handheld microphone while a cameraman steadies his shot, turning a…

  • #48 Somewhere in the south

    #48 Somewhere in the south

    Sunlight, sea air, and café chatter set the tone in this mid-century travel-style artwork, where a well-dressed couple lingers over fruit and drinks at a linen-covered table. Seagulls wheel outside above a bright shoreline, while a bold splash of flowers and a striped beach umbrella hint at leisure marketed as effortless and glamorous. The scene…

  • #64 We will culturally serve each visitor

    #64 We will culturally serve each visitor

    Bold Cyrillic lettering across the top announces, “We will culturally serve each visitor,” setting the tone for a carefully staged scene of hospitality. At a neatly laid table, diners lean in mid-conversation while plates, cutlery, and a bottle on the white tablecloth emphasize the rituals of eating out—orderly, social, and meant to feel modern. The…

  • #5 A host of heavenly angels

    #5 A host of heavenly angels

    Against a star-speckled violet sky, a surreal “host of heavenly angels” drifts into view—though these angels wear the unmistakable styling of vintage fashion and pin-up era glamour. A towering figure in a towel-like wrap and bathing suit seems to hover mid-leap, while a smaller, sharply posed woman in a striking cutout swimsuit floats nearby, her…

  • #21 Hot chick and chickenhawk

    #21 Hot chick and chickenhawk

    Wild surf and dark, craggy cliffs set a dramatic stage for an unexpected pairing: a nude figure seen from behind, her long hair cascading down her back, and a raptor perched with calm authority. The composition feels like a handmade collage, blending a soft, human silhouette with the crisp plumage and fan of a reddish…

  • #37 Upon hearing a student recite a French phrase with precision, madame Pelletier always arched the eyebrow above her dark dominant eye with approval

    #37 Upon hearing a student recite a French phrase with precision, madame Pelletier always arched the eyebrow above her dark dominant eye with approval

    A stern yet composed woman gazes outward, her face framed by the dense columns of an English–French reference page. The background reads like a well-thumbed dictionary or textbook—snippets of “ENGLISH–FRENCH” and “THE VERB” peeking through—so the portrait feels inseparable from the classroom world the title evokes. Even without a visible schoolroom, the pairing of poised…

  • #7 Haus Am See

    #7 Haus Am See

    Nestled against trees and rock, a modest lakeside house anchors the scene, its pale walls and dark roofline set off by a small chimney and a few bright accents near the eaves. The foreground slopes in soft, sandy tones toward the water, where boulders and low shrubs create a natural edge that feels both sheltered…

  • #23 Ardoye in Flanders

    #23 Ardoye in Flanders

    Rising above a low horizon of rooftops, the church tower in Ardoye dominates the scene with a steep spire and clustered pinnacles that hint at local Gothic tradition. The artist’s line work lingers on the masonry—arched openings, a clock face, and a deep portal—while letting the broad roofs below form a calm, protective base. Even…

  • #39 The Castle on the Donau

    #39 The Castle on the Donau

    Along the broad sweep suggested by the title “The Castle on the Donau,” a distant stronghold sits lightly on the horizon, framed by layered hills and a pale, open sky. The artist’s eye favors atmosphere over exacting detail: soft washes define the terrain, while the castle’s bright façade and steep gables emerge as a focal…

  • #2 Dag and Daga, and the Flying Troll of Sky Mountain, 1907

    #2 Dag and Daga, and the Flying Troll of Sky Mountain, 1907

    Between the trunks of a shadowed forest, a crowned figure in a flowing white cloak glides like a candle-flame through the undergrowth, while bright red toadstools punctuate the earth with fairy-tale warning signs. The scene is richly patterned and storybook in tone, balancing playful ornament with a slightly uneasy stillness. In the corner, a small…
