About the Item
Peter van Poppel (1945-2023) is one of the most important new realists in the Netherlands. His paintings are often populated by lovely, sometimes fairytale-like figures. Each one has something magical and childlike about it. Although his work appears very contemporary, the art lover immediately recognizes the influence of old masters such as Rembrandt and Carel Farbritius.
Van Poppel's works, usually modest in size, continue to intrigue. The scenes sometimes seem ordinary, but each one transcends reality. The painter creates a dreamlike fantasy world full of hidden meanings, iconographic references and references to other works. The enchanting works of art are always open to multiple interpretations. Although the persons who figure in his work appear naive and innocent at first sight, they often seem to harbor desires and secrets.
'Everything was covered with dust and I was allowed to dust it with a brush,' says Utrecht-based painter Peter van Poppel (1945) about his work ''Breitner Newspaper''.
Although the date on the work (1975-1977) states that it took Van Poppel two years to complete the work, in reality it was much longer.
In oil on panel, Van Poppel has depicted a lady with a newspaper in her hands. If you look closely at the newspaper, you will see that it is full of photos by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner (1857-1923). At a time when photography was not very highly regarded, Breitner took thousands of photos, mostly photos taken on the street. He saw photography as an opportunity to visualize something more clearly.
Van Poppel was allowed to dust some of these photos. We see not only a self-portrait of Breitner, but also the photograph Two women on the Dam in Amsterdam from 1900. Van Poppel also used the exciting nudity that Breitner captured with his camera for his painting. Like all of Van Poppel's work, this work continues to intrigue. It seems so commonplace, but it transcends reality.
Peter van Poppel is also unique in terms of painting style. He works just as delicately as old masters like Vermeer, with a lot of attention and love for detail. Once you are familiar with his oeuvre, you will not soon forget it. He knows how to put his own subtle sense of humor in his work. They are paintings to fall in love with.

''The Crinaeae'' Contemporary Underwater Portrait Painting, Girls in Pool
By Amy Devlin
Located in Utrecht, NL
Amy Devlin portrays people, animals, or nature in her works. But what really matters to her is light and water, which she wants to capture in the form of a physical memory.

Her paintings show a fascination with the movement and texture of water, which is depicted in vivid colors in her works.

"Father Dear" -- Oil Painting by Alexander Stolin
Located in New Orleans, LA
ALEXANDER STOLIN, born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine (under the former Soviet Socialist Republic), where he received intensive training and a master of fine arts degree in his homeland’s traditional art academies. He immigrated to San Francisco in 1992, met his future wife in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, then married and settled in New Orleans. He maintains a home and studio in Madisonville, Louisiana, and is a significant but understated figure in the New Orleans art community. As art critic D. Eric Bookhardt suggested in 2002, “Stolin is more accomplished than he is famous.” His art, often exhibited in thematic series that incorporate a variety of media, ranges from intimate portraits to large-scale murals (one measuring twelve feet by seventy-two feet). He has worked on a progressively larger scale, most recently designing and painting projects for the Louisiana film industry. Stolin’s technically proficient and complexly layered art reflects a unique fusion of the academic training he received in Kiev and his evolving response to the very different culture, lifestyle, and subject matter he has discovered in New Orleans, Madisonville, and the Gulf South.
Stolin’s Face to Face series of portraits, completed from 2000 to 2002, featured New Orleans artists including Douglas Bourgeois...
