More about this artwork

This compelling woodcut created by Bernard Essers in 1925, titled "Zee bij Bergen" (Sea at Bergen), captures a serene yet dynamic seaside landscape. The scene masterfully balances movement and stillness, depicting rolling waves and seashore birds against a strikingly minimalistic backdrop. The upper portion of the artwork features a sky with scattered clouds, set above a vivid, contrasting blue backdrop.Sailboats with orange sails gracefully navigate the glistening black sea, adding a peaceful nautical element to the stark contrast of the waves. On the sandy beach, depicted in a subtle beige hue, two birds gracefully walk and engage with the environment, adding life and movement. Essers’ use of clear lines and bold forms, typical of the woodcut medium, creates an engaging texture throughout the scene.This piece not only showcases Essyers' prowess in woodcut techniques but also his ability to evoke emotion and narrative through simple, powerful imagery.
