About this artwork
This composition was created as a commission for a friend, to be a birthday present for his mother, who is from New Zealand. I was asked to paint a crab, because her astrological sign is cancer, and to make it one of the red crabs that she remembered on black sand beaches in New Zealand from her childhood. The miniature, made in two versions (one for my friend and one for sale), brings out the playful character of the crab, draping seaweed over itself.…
The painting is in egg tempera over gold leaf. The paint has been scratched through to reveal the gold beneath and create the pattern along the crab's limbs and around its shell. Coarse black pigment has been ground into a mixture of resin and linseed oil and painted over the gold background to conjure up black sand.
The painting has a fixed, black frame and the dimensions given include this frame. The painting is initialled on the reverse 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.
