Marcel Delmotte (1901–1984) – “le Paradis Terrestre,” 1978
Artist: Marcel Delmotte
A magnificent and masterful oil on panel (Isorel/Orgalit) created by the renowned Belgian Surrealist and Symbolist master, Marcel Delmotte (1901–1984). Titled “Le Paradis Terrestre” and dated 1978, this major work is a perfect illustration of the artist’s dreamlike and timeless universe. The composition features nude female figures with sculptural and academic forms, moving through a fantastical and mysterious landscape. In it, Delmotte harmoniously blends minimalist architectural structures, mineral-like rock formations, and a deep color palette dominated by shades of green, blue, and gold. The work attests to the painter’s technical virtuosity, influenced by both the masters of the Italian Renaissance and 20th-century lyrical surrealism.
