More about this artwork

Titled "Bloemen over de stad" (Flowers Over the City), this compelling 1929 artwork by Frits van den Berghe offers a complex tapestry of urban juxtaposition where nature meets the man-made. Dominating the foreground is a bouquet of abstracted, almost surreal floral forms held within an equally idiosyncratic vessel. These flowers, rendered in deep hues of reds, oranges, and eerie blues, seem to channel an otherworldly vitality.The background, perhaps a cityscape, features semi-abstract representations of buildings. These structures, appearing both as silhouettes and more detailed depictions, fade into a densely pigmented blue sky, suggesting both the time of dusk and a certain smoginess typical of industrial cities. There’s a distinct contrast between the organic vibrancy of the flowers and the geometrical, somewhat ghostly presence of the urban environment.In "Bloemen over de stad," van den Berghe might be commenting on the ever-encroaching spread of urbanization and the resilient beauty of nature, or perhaps suggesting a complex coexistence of the natural and the artificial.
