About the artwork

Graceful, powerful and a true icon of Dutch nature: the grey heron is a bird that immediately attracts attention. With its elegant silhouette, stately posture and impressive wings, this beautiful hunter is a symbol of peace and strength in our polders, canals and nature reserves.

Durgerdam, a picturesque village on the outskirts of Amsterdam, is a hidden gem full of charm and tranquillity. With its colourful wooden houses, a historic village church and an idyllic location on the shores of the IJmeer, Durgerdam feels like a step back in time - a place where the beauty of the past is alive and well.

This small fishing village oozes authenticity. Narrow streets meander along the dike, where you have a beautiful view of the rippling water and green meadows. It is a popular destination for nature lovers, hikers and anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

Fog is more than just a natural phenomenon - it is a moment of silence, a touch of mystery that envelops the world in a soft veil. When the fog sweeps over fields, forests or canals, it transforms the landscape into an enchanted scene, full of magic and hidden beauty. The dreamy nature of fog evokes feelings of tranquillity, mystery, and endless imagination.

Give your interior a touch of magic or carry the beauty of the blue heron with you, and be inspired by the timeless beauty of Durgerdam by bringing a piece of this charming village into your home.
