This is a work on paper from the 'Remembrandt' series by the artist Pieter Engels. Remembrandt is a contemporary reinterpretation of the works of the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn.
In Remembrandt , Pieter Engels combines his mastery of painting with an in-depth knowledge of Rembrandt's techniques and aesthetics. He emphasizes Rembrandt's characteristic chiaroscuro (light-dark) technique, creating dramatic effects that heighten the emotions of his subjects. However, Engels also brings a modern element to his work by using contemporary faces and themes, challenging the viewer to explore the connection between the past and the present.
Pieter Engels' series offers a fascinating dialogue between classical art history and contemporary life.
