Schlafender (Sleeping Man) is an early figurative painting by Holger Bunk, created using casein tempera paint on fine cotton nettle. It depicts the head and upper body of a reclining figure in finely coordinated color blends. Thematically, the work captures a quiet moment of observation, rendering the volume of the body and the interplay of light on the surface of the sleeping figure against a blue-grey background.
This early piece highlights Bunk’s enduring interest in the human form, a theme that continues to feature prominently in his subsequent works and remains central to his current artistic practice.
After 41 years, the cotton nettle foundation has developed some craquelure cracks, a natural result of the painting’s age. For this reason, the work is offered at a lower price than other pieces of comparable size. Despite this, the painting has preserved the intensity and tranquility of its intimate motif.
