Original artwork description:

Sunset in my polder, view from my window. Red and purple light in the sky just before darkness. The start of a deep purple night.

" The red sky, reflected in the traces on the land and the dark roofs, is intense, almost overwhelming. It looks like an abstraction before we get this hint of humanity. There is sense of solitude, almost loneliness."D. H.

"The landscapes of Van Nieuwenhuijzen are extensive, born from an intense experience of the openness of the Zeeland area. An undertone of mysticism is unmistakable. As if caught in line and color movement continues in the invisible behind the horizon. The accentuated line is both the boundary and the window. The subtle differences in rhythm and nuances reflect a range of emotions.” (K.B)
