Samuel van Hoogstraten – Letter Board, 1664

Rembrandt’s pupil pioneered illusionistic ‘letter boards’: lifelike still lifes of personal objects behind leather straps.

The scene looks casual, but each item is carefully chosen to highlight texture and realism.

A 17th-century trompe-l’oeil still life: an array of letters, combs, scissors, medals, and personal items appear strapped behind three brown leather straps on a board. Each object is rendered with striking realism and detail, set against a dark background. Via https://kunstvensters.com/2017/05/18/onbekende-pareltjes-uit-de-musea-van-de-gouden-eeuw/

Vincent van Gogh - The Irises, 1889

“The lightning rod for my illness,” Van Gogh said about this work, which he painted shortly before his first admission to a psychiatric institution. The canvas reveals a great sense of tension and restlessness.

Vincent van Gogh - The Irises, 1889 “The lightning rod for my illness,” Van Gogh said about this work, which he painted shortly before his first admission to a psychiatric institution. The canvas reveals a great sense of tension and restlessness. The painting depicts vibrantly blooming irises with dynamic brushstrokes. The flowers are a mix of deep blues and violets, contrasting with lush green leaves, red-orange earth, and yellow flowers in the background. Van Gogh's characteristic impasto technique adds texture and movement within the painting, creating an energetic and expressive feeling. The overall cropped composition of Irises, includes broad areas of vivid color and monumental rippled irises overflowing the borders of the canvas which helps moves the viewer's eye throughout the canvas.

Max Liebermann – Pig Market in Haarlem, 1891

Liebermann loved painting scenes from everyday life, which earned him the nickname 'apostle of ugliness.'
A vendor bends over his pigs, customers inspect the goods, all under warm impressionist light.

A late 19th-century painting by Max Liebermann shows a pig vendor, buyers, and lively market activity under leafy trees filtering the sunlight. The style blends realism with impressionistic light. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Pierre-Auguste Renoir - Monet Painting in His Garden at Argenteuil, 1873

Renoir was known for his vibrant use of color and loose brushwork, but less often noted is his ability to depict intimate moments among friends. This painting reflects the close camaraderie between him and Monet.

Ulpiano Checa y Sanz – La Place de l’Opéra, Paris (late 19th c.)

Spanish painter Checa y Sanz portrays Paris not with grandeur, but with street-level bustle: a newspaper vendor, a carriage, a terrace, elegant passers-by. History in motion, stilled on canvas.

A painting of the Place de l’Opéra in Paris, created by Ulpiano Checa y Sanz in the late 19th century. The scene shows a lively city square filled with people dressed in period clothing. On the left, a café-restaurant with a terrace is visible; people sit at tables, while a light brown dog lies on the ground nearby. At the center of the composition stands a newspaper vendor, offering papers to passers-by. On the right, a horse-drawn carriage waits, with a horse harnessed, and men in black suits and tall black top hats standing close by. In the background rise large urban buildings, while trees line the street and add depth to the cityscape. The overall atmosphere conveys the bustle, elegance, and layered textures of everyday Parisian life in the late 1800s. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

John Atkinson Grimshaw–Liverpool Docks (1892)

Grimshaw often painted on a wet surface called 'grisaille' to create the luminous effect seen here. His attention to atmospheric detail earned him the nickname 'Painter of Moonlight.'
It’s easy to lose yourself in this scene: glimmering gaslights, distant silhouettes, softly lit windows.

John Atkinson Grimshaw, 'Liverpool Docks,' 1892. The painting depicts a misty evening at Liverpool’s docks, with the wet street reflecting the glow of gas lamps and shop windows. The left side of the image shows the tall masts of docked ships, their rigging silhouetted against a hazy greenish sky. Figures move through the mist—some alone, others in pairs—and a dark horse-drawn carriage traverses the shiny street. In the right foreground, tightly packed buildings display softly lit windowpanes. The entire scene is bathed in a mysterious, atmospheric light that suggests both the bustle and solitude of the Victorian waterfront. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Pierre-Auguste Renoir - Young Girls and Boy in a Landscape (1893)

Soft brushwork and pastel hues invite you to a tranquil afternoon by the water, surrounded by lush trees and serene countryside. Renoir’s mastery of light shines throughout the scene.

A late-19th-century Impressionist oil painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, titled “Young Girls and Boy in a Landscape” (1893), depicts two young girls seated together next to a lying boy, outdoors on a sun-dappled grassy area. The trio, dressed in late 19th-century attire with elaborate hats, sits beneath tall, twisting trees that gently frame the composition. In the background is water, reflecting the pale blue of the sky, while vibrantly brushed shrubs and foliage blend harmoniously with distant white villas dotting the rolling hills. Renoir’s characteristic soft brushstrokes, delicate color transitions, and luminous palette convey a dreamy, peaceful atmosphere, capturing both the innocence of childhood and the timeless tranquility of the French countryside.

Stefano Torelli – The Coronation of Empress Catherine II of Russia (1762–1777)

Light pours through high windows, catching on silk and chandeliers, gilding the empress at the centre.
Nobles in gold-threaded robes stand in witness. A ceremony turned into spectacle.

Large 18th-century oil painting by Stefano Torelli showing the coronation of Catherine II of Russia. The scene unfolds inside a vast cathedral-like hall with soaring arches and tall windows that let in dramatic shafts of light. Catherine, richly dressed in a voluminous sage green gown with gold embroidery, stands at the centre of the composition, illuminated as if chosen by the light itself. Around her, noblemen in silks and clerics in ceremonial robes form a semi-circle, their gazes directed at the empress. Multiple pewter chandeliers glimmer overhead, catching the daylight. Rows of courtiers, dignitaries, and guests fill the space, emphasizing the grandeur and importance of the moment. The overall impression is one of theatre, splendour, and imperial authority.

Henri Gaston Darien – The Parisian Bird Market (ca. 1900–1910)

A Golden Age slice of city life: people gather around songbirds for sale, every head covered with a hat.
The low sun paints the background rose, while a dog noses curiously through the crowd.

A Belle Époque winter market scene painted by Henri Gaston Darien. The canvas is filled with people in heavy coats and hats, gathered around birdcages filled with small yellow birds. Some men carry cages on their arms while others bend to inspect the wares set on the ground. A brown dog sniffs between the crowd. At the right, a fountain sprays into the cold air. Tall, nearly leafless trees rise above, their branches etched against the sky. Through them, a low pink sun casts a warm glow onto the pale stone façade of a large building in the background, suffusing the wintry atmosphere with a soft rose light. The combination of busy detail and delicate color creates a vivid glimpse of everyday Parisian life around 1900. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Friedrich Friedländer - The wine tasting (ca. 1890)

Friedländer used a warm, earthy palette, with fine brushstrokes for textures, and shadow and light effects for depth.

He knew better than anyone how to capture facial expressions, including gestures and interaction. Often in intimate settings, as here.

The Wine Tasting, or A Good Vintage is an intimate genre scene, painted in oil on wood. It depicts two men in a simple, rustic setting—a cellar or tavern—tasting and evaluating wine. The man on the right wears high black boots, a blue apron, and a black cap with a tassel. The man on the left wears a suit, we see the yellow cord of a pocket watch, and he wears a black overcoat. The composition is typical of Friedländer: central figures with expressive faces and gestures, surrounded by attributes such as a wine barrel, pots and jugs. The atmosphere is warm and cheerful. The man on the right watches with joyful anticipation while the man on the left tastes the white wine. The taster concentrates on his task, visibly content. Colors are earthy and detailed: beige and orange tones for stone, brown for wood, blue, gray and white for clothing, yellow for wine, and cream for light effects. The red umbrella draws attention to the central part of the painting: the two men. Thematically, it explores social rituals and the joy of everyday pleasures. It is representative of Friedländer's oeuvre. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Henri Edmond Cross - The Beach of Vignasse (1891/1892)

Dot by dot, Cross built the beach: low greenery in light and shadow; sea as mirror; the sky a faint bluish-lavender.
The pastel tones are calming, the sunlight almost feels warm on this southern French beach.

A pointillist landscape painting by French Neo-Impressionist Henri Edmond Cross, titled The Beach of Vignasse, dated 1891-1892. The scene shows a Mediterranean coastal strip with low, sparse vegetation—small shrubs and grasses—that stretch toward a sandy beach. Beyond the sand, the sea glows under strong sunlight, shimmering, its surface broken only by light reflections. The sky above is pale and luminous. The entire composition is built up from countless small dots of colour: pastel tones dominate—soft greens (mint, olive, sea green), sandy yellows, warm gold, touches of lavender and grey, light sky-blue. The vegetation displays darker and lighter green shades, creating depth; the sand and sunlight glow in soft golds, shadows shaded with grey-lavender. The brushwork (or rather the dot work) gives a gentle vibration to the scene: the heat-light, the shimmer of light moving on sea and plants, the airy quality of a warm coast. The atmosphere is calm yet radiant, evoking sultry afternoon light, delicate flora, and a timeless seaside landscape in pastel splendour. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Nazmi Ziya Güran - Lady in Pink on a Chaise Longue (ca. 1904–1917)

A woman reclines in her garden chair, sunlight flickers through foliage, roses and trees frame the fields. A Turkish impressionist moment that somehow feels intimate, like catching someone mid-daydream.

A painting by Turkish impressionist Nazmi Ziya Güran (1904-1917), Lady in Pink on a Chaise Longue. A woman reclines in a chaise longue, wearing a light-pink blouse and a white skirt. She has on a brimmed sun hat, and a soft cushion supports her neck. Overhead is a canopy of foliage; dappled sunlight filters through leaves, casting light spots over the bushes, grass, her clothing, and parts of the chaise. Around her are light-pink roses in bloom; some leaves nearly touch her hat. In the distance, through the greenery, fields stretch. The colour palette is tender: lush greens from blue-greens to olive and deeper forest tones, pale whites, soft pinks. The atmosphere is tranquil, dreamy, a moment of leisure and quiet warmth, as if the breeze and sun conspired to lull her into peace. Light and shade interplay subtly, bringing texture to fabric, softness to skin, coolness beneath shade, warmth in the sunlit spots. Via Meisterdrucke.nl

Job Defies His Demons | oil on canvas | 50x70 | 2025

Deze is voor iedereen die bij tijd en wijle met demonen worstelt, schimmen uit het verleden, trauma's, of kampt met psychische kwetsbaarheid.

Voor de mensen die niet goed passen in de wereld. Die elke dag weer extra moeite moeten doen om mee te komen of om zichzelf te mogen zijn.

Voor hen die blijven staan tijdens de beproevingen, zij die weer opstaan als ze toch neergaan, die niet opgeven en toch ergens blijven geloven dat het ook ooit weer lichter zal zijn.

Hou vol.

Soms zijn je demonen niet meer dan reflecties.
Is de strijd ertegen slechts een gevecht met jezelf. Een beproeving net zo vertrouwd als leven in het verleden.
In het hoofd gevoed tot grote proporties, blijkt soms dat ze aaibaar zijn.

* Het is de week van de suïcidepreventie. Worstel je, praat erover, met dierbaren of 113.

--‐-‐--------

This is for anyone who occasionally struggles with demons, ghosts from the past, traumas, or struggles with psychological vulnerability.

For those who don't fit in well in the world. Who have to make an extra effort every day to keep up or to be themselves.

For those who remain standing through ordeals, those who get back up when they fall, who don't give up and keep believing that things will get easier again someday.

Hang in there.

Sometimes your demons are nothing more than reflections.
Is the fight against them merely a battle with yourself. An ordeal as familiar as living in the past.
Fed to enormous proportions in the head, they sometimes turn out to be cuddly.


* It's Suicide Prevention Week. Are you struggling? Talk about it with loved ones or seek help.
