작품 상세

oil on canvas 100 x 150 cm verso signed and dated: Jan Mikulka 2019. Jan Mikulka's realistic painting methods depict tranquil and contemplative still lifes rendered in charming shades of gray, blue, and contrasting red. However, the scenes do not appear to be mere descriptions of reality, but rather a subdued interpretation of it, combining objective observation with the painter's personal experience. The arrangement of objects in the composition is strictly balanced to preserve the typical harmony of the work. Sensitive treatment of the subtle transparencies and the light reflected from the glass and the shells demonstrate the mastery and precision of the author's technique.
