This black and white line drawing uses crisp cross-hatching in black ink on white paper to bring to life a toad's warts and sagging folds.
As the artist made the drawing the toad's character became clear. He seemed defeated by his unappealing appearance, slouching in his baggy skin, exhausted by the daily battle against prejudice towards his appearance. The artist placed a fly… within reach of the toad to accentuate this impression. The toad should react and snap up the fly but has lost the will to act, even to eat.
It is an image of depression, but a gentle, lightly humorous one, which encourages identification with and sympathy towards the subject.
The drawing is in black ink on Hahnemule natural white, acid free, 300g/m2, hot pressed, watercolour paper. It is initialled in the lower right.
« I seek to rekindle in contemporary viewers a sense of wonder, awe and tenderness in relation to the world around them. »
Lara Broecke's passion for early Italian art was born while living in Florence. She currently lives in France and paints using early Italian techniques - gold leaf and egg tempera paint, made by hand-grinding pigments in egg yolk, on wooden panels coated with gesso. She marries a medieval sensibility with contemporary compositions, creates rich representations of the natural world and man's relationship to it.
