EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned painting "Fisherman's Wife" by Constant Permeke, created in 1920. The artwork, rendered with oil on canvas mounted on plywood, measures an impressive 100x124 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten in Antwerp, Belgium. The image captures a moment of anticipation and longing as we see a female figure seated near a bustling harbor in Ostend. With her basket beside her and fishing boats dotting the background, she embodies the essence of a fisherwoman patiently awaiting her loved one's return from sea. Permeke masterfully portrays this scene with his distinctive style that blends elements of realism and expressionism. The artist's bold brushstrokes convey both strength and vulnerability within the woman's posture and facial expression. Through his use of color and texture, he brings to life the atmosphere of Flanders' coastal town. This print not only allows us to appreciate Permeke's artistic genius but also offers us a glimpse into Belgian culture during that era. It serves as a testament to the rich history and heritage of Belgium while celebrating its strong connection to maritime traditions. With every glance at this remarkable piece, viewers are transported back in time to witness this poignant moment frozen forever on canvas.
