This intimate and visually complex interior scene by the renowned Belgian printmaker Peter De Koninckdates from 2005. The work features a figure gazing through an open window from a sparsely furnished room containing a desk. While the outward view initially evokes a vast open sea, closer inspection reveals an intriguing, layered urban setting. The central view actually depicts the flat roof of a modernist building opposite. De Koninck's superb mastery of the etching medium is brilliantly displayed in the open right windowpane, where the glass captures a subtle, razor-sharp reflection of the historic facades and rooftops of the houses in the street behind the observer. A rare, early, and cinematic interior filled with architectural depth. A unique find for the connoisseur!
