About this artwork
In this painting, the rabbit is a sacrifice, its blood feeding the soil to produce the exuberance of the tree and colourful birds. The fox plays an ambiguous role - killing the rabbit and thereby facilitating the flourishing of the tree.
The 'tree of life' is a recurrent theme in art and can be read in both a religious and a humanist sense. Here, the artist is inspired particularly by Taddeo Gaddi's version, in the refectory of Santa Croce in Florence,… and by Gustav Klimt's well-known painting in the Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna, as well as by her own children's diagrams of the circle of life in their biology schoolbooks.
The artist has used dry pigments, hand-ground in egg yolk tempera, and gold leaf on an oak panel, prepared with a chalk ground. The large, central droplet is modelled in chalk plaster (pastiglia), so that it stands proud of the surface, and gilded.
The painting is signed and dated on the back and has a d-ring attached so that it is ready to hang.
« 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.
