EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a stunning print of Constant Permeke's masterpiece, "Fishermen; Les Pecheurs - De Vissers (recto)". Painted around 1923-24, this oil on canvas artwork measures 100x129.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The painting depicts a group of fishermen in their rowboat, navigating the vast expanse of the sea. The artist skillfully portrays the ruggedness and resilience of these men through his bold brushstrokes and use of dark tones. Their back view adds an air of mystery to the scene, leaving us curious about their thoughts and emotions. In the background, we see the coastline stretching out into the distance, creating a sense of depth and space. The coast line is beautifully rendered with its rocky shores meeting the crashing waves. This coastal setting evokes a feeling of tranquility mixed with anticipation as these fishermen embark on their nightly voyage. A young child can be seen among them, adding an element of innocence amidst this harsh environment. Holding onto some fruit, perhaps for sustenance during their journey or as an offering to appease nature's whims. Permeke's mastery lies not only in capturing physical details but also in conveying emotion through his subjects' postures and expressions. These brave men are bent over their work, fully immersed in their task at hand. Overall, this remarkable artwork transports us to another time - early twentieth century - where life was simpler yet filled with challenges that shaped one's character. It serves as a testament to Permeke's talent as well as his ability to capture both beauty and hardship within a single frame.
