€1350,00

A heavy horse stands ready to pull a cart, while a family hastily gathers: a man with folded hands, a woman protectively embracing a child, and figures in the background looking anxiously around. With bright colors and powerful, angular strokes, Nest Martens captures the tension of departure and uncertainty. "The Flight" is an intense, narrative painting that immediately grabs the attention and lingers.

Description

Nest Martens (1925–2024) is considered a modern heir to Flemish Expressionism. From an early, Permeke-like visual language, he developed his own highly stylized form language with bold lines and bright color fields. His work balances between abstraction and figuration, often focusing on human figures and their interrelationships, making it a source of continued appeal to both collectors and art lovers.
