Zeeland family portrait in modern Walcheren basalt block costumes
- Free shipping within the Netherlands
This powerful Zeeland family portrait shows two generations together in a modern interpretation of the Walcheren costume with basalt block print, photographed on the dike. A man in a modern farmer's suit, a woman in costume, and a blonde girl in costume together form a layered and meaningful whole.
The composition tells a subtle story:
the woman is playfully turned away, the man looks away from the viewer, while the girl proudly and uninhibitedly looks straight into the lens. This creates a tension between the present and the future. The basalt block print refers to the Zeeland dikes and symbolizes protection, strength, and continuity.
This artwork shows how Zeeland heritage moves with the times. Tradition is given a contemporary form here, without losing its meaning. The family portrait radiates connection, but allows each individual to retain their own role and attitude.
The artwork is produced to order in the Netherlands and finished on dibond or plexiglass. These high-quality materials ensure deep structures, clear details, and a luxurious appearance. Optionally, a handmade wooden frame from a Dutch framer is available.
