Oil On Panel 'an Imaginary World' By Jean Dratz
Artist: Jean Dratz
Oil on panel "Un monde imaginaire" by Jean Dratz
If Dratz is best known for his realistic landscapes, commercial illustrations and satirical caricatures, this work in particular highlights his rarer forays into the fantastic and surreal. It depicts a chaotic, dreamlike landscape teeming with strange sea creatures, skulls and hidden faces swirling around a central vortex that reveals a distant city
Jean Pierre Gustave Dratz (1903-1967) was a versatile and prolific Belgian painter, illustrator, cartoonist and comic strip artist. Born in Mont-Saint-Guibert, he was the son and pupil of painter Constant Dratz
