CÉCILE VAN HANJA
Broken Ice

2023

About the Item

“Broken Ice” encapsulates a wintry landscape where light assumes a pivotal role, casting its glow upon the snow-covered foreground in front of an architectural marvel. The building portrayed draws inspiration from the iconic Farnsworth House, paying homage to Mies van der Rohe’ timeless modernistic pavilion. The interplay of light reflecting off the snow in the forefront becomes a focal point, illuminating the scene and contributing to the ambiance of the wintry landscape. This luminous display adds depth and texture to the composition, infusing it with a sense of tranquility and stark beauty. Against the backdrop stands an iceberg, its presence enhancing the sensation of intense cold permeating the environment. The contrast between the crisp lines of the modernistic structure and the imposing, icy form of the iceberg amplifies the painting’s evocative portrayal of frigid isolation. Crafted and prepared for display, “Broken Ice” stands as a complete visual narrative, ready to adorn the wall and transport viewers into a world where the marriage of architectural elegance and the stark beauty of nature coalesce in a captivating portrayal of a wintry realm.
