EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking artwork by Theodor Severin Kittelsen. This watercolor on paper print, measuring 27x22 cm, depicts a scene filled with symbolism and melancholy. Set in the confines of a bedroom, we are introduced to an anthropomorphic newt who appears sickly and emaciated. The skeletal figure sits hunched over amidst stacks of books, portraying the fragility of both body and mind during times of illness. The presence of alcohol bottles and cigars suggests self-medication or perhaps indulgence as coping mechanisms. Kittelsen's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke reveals the artist's mastery in capturing emotions through visual storytelling. The lizard-like creature embodies the essence of influenza itself - its menacing grip on humanity depicted through this poignant representation. The painting belongs to Kittelsen's series "Do the Animals have a Soul" exploring existential questions about life beyond our own species. Here, he delves into themes such as sickness and mortality while challenging societal norms surrounding health. This photograph print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Kittelsen's talent even more closely. It invites viewers into his world where imagination intertwines with reality, leaving us pondering our own vulnerability in the face of illness.
