About "No, not the wedge!"
by Marjolein Overbeek
About the artwork
A Baroque gentleman, elegant in his gold-embroidered coat and white wig, seems completely in control - until a mischievous spaniel literally lifts his hairdo into the air. The moment of dignified surprise is captured with soft lighting and subtle details: the natural curls under the wig, the sheen of the brocade and the play of daylight on wood and velvet.
This work plays with contrasts: stateliness versus playfulness, perfection versus humanity. The inspiration lies in refined portraits from the 18th century, but with an unexpected twist that evokes a smile.
The mood is light and humorous, with a touch of nostalgia. It is an ode to elegance that need not be taken too seriously. In any interior, this work brings a sense of warmth, playfulness and sophisticated surprise - as if time stands still for a moment at the perfect moment of mischief and grace.
