About this artwork
You look at a collage of several motifs: around the center, in which a horse's head appears, you recognize a winter landscape framed in red, and to the right of it a double mask, plus a human skull that appears behind an open book whose text remains hidden. Opposite you see the study of a hand holding a brush. Underneath, quotes from the "Fenestra" series appear: an artist holding her palette eccentrically above her head, and a study of a skull -…
the mysteriously appearing hand conveys a melancholy mood. The citations of the traditional still life reflect the process of painting, to which the Latin title of the picture "Speculum" alludes. The composition of the picture invites you to interpret the enigmatic relationship between the motifs. - The artist's signature is on the back of the canvas.

With faces as his central theme, he composes figurative portraits marked by interesting combinations of form and colour.
