About the Item
The old dam.
1959, cardboard, watercolor, 68x54 cm
The central focus of the painting is an old town, a historic district known for its antiquated architecture, cobbled streets, and a sense of bygone eras. Watercolor technique allows for the depiction of the old town's buildings, streets, and landmarks with a loose and expressive style. The fluidity of watercolors can evoke a sense of movement and spontaneity, giving the cityscape a lively and vibrant feel.
