English painter John William Waterhouse (1849-1917) communicates his distinctive aesthetic vision through his use of colour. His works have an unusual formalism - figures and settings often appear not merely realistic but somewhat hyperreal. Yet paradoxically Waterhouse's works border on the abstract, prioritizing chromatic features over content.
English painter John William Waterhouse (18491917) communicates his aesthetic vision through his use of color. Throughout his career, he experimented with color as an element with seemingly spatial qualities. His works have an unusual formalismfigures and settings often appear not merely realistic but somewhat hyperreal. Yet paradoxically Waterhouses works border on the abstract, prioritizing chromatic features over content. They invite us to focus on colorsand through them line, shape, texture and rhythmin much the same way as works by Kandinsky, Klee, Matisse or Pollock.
