2 Fischerboote im Hafen
This lithography by Jo Pieper, titled '2 Fischerboote im Hafen', depicts two fishing boats docked in a harbour. The boats are positioned at the center, their masts extending vertically and creating visual structure in the composition. Behind them, brightly coloured buildings with stylised, blocky forms occupy the background. The use of bold lines and strong contrasts between colours—such as blues, yellows, and greens—creates a dynamic yet somewhat abstract representation of the scene. The harbour scene feels lively but also somewhat simplified with minimal detail in the portrayal of water and architecture.
Context
In terms of time reference, the imagery evokes a modernist perspective of urban life, likely referencing a mid-20th-century period. The style and simplicity of the forms hint at post-war art movements, where many artists focused on the human connection to urban and industrial settings, using abstraction to represent everyday scenes.
