1689 Heaven Jan Luyken Ladder Reaches Rests Stairway White
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Man pointing ladder reaches earth sky rests half done work" we are transported to a world of mystery and wonder. The image depicts a man standing before a towering ladder that stretches from the earth all the way up into the vast expanse of the sky. With one hand, he points towards this extraordinary structure, seemingly in awe of its existence. As we observe closely, we notice that the man appears to be resting, his work only halfway completed. Perhaps he has embarked on an ambitious journey or quest but decided to pause for a moment of reflection. His expression is filled with both determination and contemplation as he contemplates what lies ahead. The atmosphere surrounding him adds another layer of intrigue to the scene. A thick fog envelops everything, casting an ethereal glow upon the surroundings. The fog lights shine brightly in white hues, creating an otherworldly ambiance. This artwork evokes thoughts of Jan Luyken's famous etching "Stairway to Heaven" created in Amsterdam back in 1689. It invites us to ponder existential questions about our own journeys through life and our aspirations for reaching new heights. Printed on paper and measuring just 89 mm high by 77 mm wide, this small yet powerful piece transports us into a realm where dreams meet reality and possibilities are endless.
