"Cycle of Life" Painting – Holland, the Beginning of the 19th Century
"Cycle of Life" painting. Oil on wood. Holland, c. 1800. In the center are two symmetrical stair cases integrating into one unit, leading to a gate blocked by a low fence. Nine figures stand on the stairs, on each stair appears the age of the person standing on it, from the age of ten to the age of ninety, in intervals of ten years, from left to right.
The figures on the left side of the stairs are vivid and lively – young men dressed in red and brown garments, elaborate brim hats on their heads, one holding a dagger, the other a flag, the third wears a cape.
The figure in the centre of the stair cases and the figures on the right side are dresses in black – men wearing round hats, their back is bent, their beard grey. In front of the left staircase stands a pregnant woman; on bottom of the right staircase lies a dead person in shrouds.
81X54 cm. Fair condition. Painted on three wood boards connected to each other and framed in original wooden frame. Bottom board partly detached.
