EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Adriaen van der Werff's masterpiece, "Candle light: sleeping woman". The painting depicts a mesmerizing scene of an older man and a younger woman illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight. However, this tranquil moment is disrupted as the old man appears to be pawing at the slumbering woman. Van der Werff's exceptional talent is evident in his meticulous attention to detail, as seen in the wood oil visual material used for this artwork. The rectangular composition adds a sense of balance and harmony to the overall piece. The artist's signature, v. Werff fe. , can be found discreetly placed under the sconce where the candle rests. This nightpiece not only captures a candlelit scene but also serves as an allegory for vice, laziness, lust, and eroticism. Set against the backdrop of Kralingen in Rotterdam, Netherlands, this fine art print transports viewers back in time to experience Dutch culture and European aesthetics from centuries ago. It offers a glimpse into van der Werff's artistic vision while evoking emotions through its powerful imagery.
