More about this artwork

In this artwork, a woman draped in an elaborately patterned gown reclines by a pond. Her dress flows around her like fluid, embellished with stars and intricate floral motifs, contributing to a dreamlike quality. Two elegant swans curve their necks gracefully near her, their forms echoing the sweeping lines and rhythms of the woman's attire and the rippling water. The woman's expression is serene, verging on melancholic, as she holds a butterfly gently in her hands. Her hair and the surroundings are rendered in swirling, rhythmic lines that suggest movement and a sense of the ethereal, blurring the boundaries between the woman, the creatures, and the natural elements around them.

Jan Toorop (1858–1928) was a 19-century Dutch-Javanese painter who extensively experimented with different artistic styles ranging from Realism, Impressionism, Symbolism and Art Nouveau to Pointillism. He was famous for using highly stylized slim figures and dynamic lines that were influenced by Indonesian motifs and curvilinear lines. His most famous poster artwork “Delft Salad Oil”, commissioned by The Dutch Oil Company, became so iconic that the Dutch Art Nouveau painting style is given the nickname "the salad oil style". Despite the fact that Toorop's expertise was in producing designs for marketing and advertisements, he also produced a number of fine art pieces that dealt with darker subjects including the human physche and emotions.
