White Eggs

This seemingly simple still life painting of eggs in a bowl is actually carefully thought out to create an impressive work. The texture of the wood, green bowl and eggs are distinct thanks to Lijftogt’s skilful
brushstrokes. In the backdrop, the muted blue provides a gentle but effective compositional balance, subtly drawing attention to the subject of the piece. The eggs and bowl are painted with complete clarity, portraying everyday objects in a poetic light.
