About the artwork

The painting in the predominant colours of brown and orange offers the viewer a unique glimpse into a majestic cave opening that looks like a Gothic window construction. Enthroned in its centre is an open door or transparent gate that functions as the central element of the painting.

In the foreground of the painting, heavy branches with lush foliage extend into the light, creating an immediate presence and conveying a sense of depth. The central areas of the painting are dominated by a cluster of trees that seem to wind around a river. The bright green, vibrant areas create an aura of positivity and growth, which is continued in the rising hills. The circular shapes emphasise the natural harmony and balance of the scene.

The light itself seems to move behind the glass element of the cathedral-like structure in a fascinating spiral movement, adding an extra dimension of mysticism. In the upper right corner of the picture, a balloon with a gondola floats, obviously occupied by people marvelling at this breathtaking light spectacle.

This painting invites the viewer to reflect on the connection between nature and light, earth and sky. The cave can be interpreted as a symbol of the search for spiritual awakening or the unveiling of new horizons. Nature and the powerful presence of light are undoubtedly at the heart of this impressive work, inspiring the viewer to reflect on the wonders of nature and the spiritual dimensions of life. Ultimately, however, the interpretation is left to the individual sensibilities and creative imagination of the viewer.
