De Lakenhal – 16-08-19
Last weekend I visited De Lakenhal at Leiden, Netherlands to see the exhibition ‘Rembrandt and the Golden Age’. Quite nice, also to see the refurbished museum. When I looked out the windows at the front of the building I was captured by the Oude Vest on which the light was filtered by the museum glass. It looked a little bit sinister and there were gloomy clouds in the sky which lead me to draw this one. There were some specific details on the entry wall I had to execute quite reastically in order to prevent the risk of unrecognizability. I rendered the trees in my roundism style though. The Winsor & Newton paper took care of a grainy effect, enhancing the gloom even more.
