Detailed description
Picture "Lake Tahoe" (2004)
The work was inspired by the painter's numerous visits to Lake Tahoe, a large lake on the border of California and Nevada, where he was particularly fascinated by the ancient Sequoia trees. In this painting, he has placed these trees like sculptures in the barren landscape, bringing them into focus. The yellowish color of the sky forms a contrast to the grey rock formations and makes the scenery with the grey mirror of the lake appear in an almost unreal light. The loneliness and vastness of this landscape is palpable for the viewer. The work is dated and signed on the reverse.
