In this atmospheric image, historic Delft comes to life in a surprising way. The familiar street scene with narrow canals, brick bridges and stately mansions forms the basis of this scene. A gently curving bridge over the clear water leads the eye into the picturesque street. Characteristic are the high windows and narrow gables, typical of Delft's old town.
What makes this picture special is the artistic interpretation of the facades. The walls seem transformed into abstract paintings, with broad brushstrokes in shades of light blue, warm orange, deep red and sunny yellow.
A single tree with fine, pale green foliage forms a natural accent among the colourful facades. Its branches stretch above the narrow street and catch the sunlight. This combination of Delft heritage and abstract art invites you to view the city in a new way: as a living painting where history and creativity go hand in hand.
