"Delft Man" 36 by 48 in., acrylic on plywood panel, Jeff Del Nero, 2017
The silhouette of a scientific profile of a man. My recent passions with combining references from the various artists in the northern European region. A time referenced as the "mini ice age" just 500 years ago. I love the linework and distinctive qualities of the blue on white glazed theme. The work and included many art historical themes along with references are from different patterns referenced from the 17th Century ware
This painting on a plywood panel is in the style of Delft glazing. Though, this is acrylic on panel— the inspiration for it was the City of Delft in the Netherlands.
