TITLE Amsterdamse weesmeisjes in een gang voor een stadsprofiel van Amsterdam
YEAR 1902 – 1920

赤と黒の制服に刻まれた、アムステルダムの歴史と少女たちの絆

19世紀から20世紀にかけてオランダの美術界を牽引したニコラス・ファン・デル・ワーイは、アムステルダムの市民孤児院(ビュルガー・ウェースハイス)で暮らす少女たちをこよなく愛し、繰り返し描きました。
彼女たちがまとっている特徴的な制服は、アムステルダムの市章に由来する、街の歴史を背負った由緒あるものです。
この孤児院は当時、街の誇りとして旅行ガイドでも訪れるべき名所として紹介されるほど有名でした。
廊下を静かに歩む少女たちの向こうには、アムステルダムの美しいシルエットが霧のように浮かび上がっています。
そこには、厳しい社会の中で寄り添い合って生きる少女たちの、ひたむきで気高い絆が優しく表現されています。

クラシックな美しさを醸し出す、シックな陰影と鮮やかな「赤」の差し色

抑えられたシックな背景のトーンに対して、少女たちの制服の鮮やかな「赤」と深い「黒」が、画面に美しいリズムと確かな生命感を与えています。ファン・デル・ワーイの柔らかく光を捉える筆致は、古いレンガの廊下の質感や、オランダの涼やかな空気の温度までを美しく描き出しています。クラシックな雰囲気のアンティーク家具や、木製の重厚なフレームと見事に調和する気品ある絵画です。リビングや書斎、あるいは静かな玄関に飾ることで、お部屋全体に知的な気品と、歴史の温もりを添えてくれます。

Nicolaas van der Waay

1855 - 1936

Born in the Netherlands in 1855, Thérèse Schwartze was a master of academic painting who timelessly captured the radiant light of Amsterdam and the beauty of its inhabitants.

What immortalized her name was a series of works depicting the girls of the Amsterdam Orphanage, adorned in their distinctive red and black uniforms.

Inheriting the tranquil expressions of light from traditional Dutch painting, the gracefully and freshly rendered figures of these women brim with a dignified nobility.

This classical yet unfading aesthetic consciousness brings a dignified intellect to our daily lives, elevating any space to a prestigious and chic level.

  • It can be displayed immediately upon arrival.

    We pre-select the most suitable frames and mats for each artwork, and our professionals frame each piece individually before shipping. There's no need for you to search for frames or measure sizes yourself. Simply open the box and hang it to complete your ideal space.

  • Reduces UV-induced fading

    We use standard acrylic panels, which are ideal for displaying valuable artwork. These panels block approximately 90% of UV rays from indoor lighting and windows, suppressing artwork degradation and preserving the vivid colors when you receive them for a long time.

  • Overwhelming reproducibility that even captures the artist's brushstrokes.

    We've adopted a special printing technique that faithfully reproduces even the author's brushstrokes and layers of ink. Rich colors, 16.77 million of them, are laid upon paper with a moist texture that absorbs light. The work can be clearly enjoyed from any angle, without reflections even by a window or under lighting, preserving its original texture.
