About ‘Storm in the Skerries. "The Flying Dutchman", August Strindberg’
Storm in the Skerries. "The Flying Dutchman", August Strindberg (1892)
A heaving blue-green sea meets bluish-black, cloudy, stormy skies. A sombre image of violent forces of nature where the expressive feel is intensified by the fierceness of Strindberg’s spatula work.
Strindberg, something of a polymath, was also a telegrapher, theosophist, painter, photographer and alchemist.
Painting and photography offered vehicles for his belief that chance played a crucial part in the creative process.
Strindberg's paintings were unique for their time, and went beyond those of his contemporaries for their radical lack of adherence to visual reality.
