About the artwork

The digital artwork "Maliesingel 29" masterfully captures a summer day on Maliesingel, where the clear blue, cloudless sky acts as a serene backdrop to a beautiful, monumental building. Located on the corner of Johan van Oldebarneveltstraat towards the Railway Museum, this stately building exudes history and character. The artist has rendered the architecture with an eye for detail: to the left of the façade is a round tower, which evokes a sense of grandeur with its elegant shape and subtle shading. The façade is further enlivened by a playful pattern of coloured tiles in white and blue-grey, which catch and reflect light like mosaics, making the façade seem to sparkle under the sun.
On the side of the building, a special window section stands out, with a charming balcony on the first floor. This balcony, with its ornate balustrade, suggests a place of tranquillity, overlooking the canal. The lines of the windows and the shadows they cast add depth and texture to the artwork. On the far left, an everyday but striking element has been added: a green dustbin, daubed with graffiti. This contrast between the historic building and the raw, modern street culture adds a touch of urban realism to the scene, raising questions about beauty and decay in public space. Balancing between romanticism and contemporaneity, the artwork invites the viewer to look beyond the facade alone.
