Description:
This painting representing a scene in Atlas (Morocco) is a typical work for his Italy-Morocco-Spain period (Luc-Peter Crombé’s first period). The south evokes a different feeling, faced with a different way of life and thus generating a different touch. The work has a warm tonality and strong contrasts between vertical and horizontal lines and between the colour surfaces. The composition is done on the basis of a strict balance between light and dark with a linear accent without any detail. |
