Bluechain 2018

"Bluechain" (2018) by Eckart Hahn is a captivating work that showcases a large blue chain. The chain is depicted with a high degree of realism, appearing almost three-dimensional. A bright yellow sphere, which could symbolize the sun or a light source, hangs above the chain. This sphere, with its red and blue top, stands out against the dark background, drawing the viewer's attention to the vertical aspect of the composition. The chain's loop is resting on a surface, and its weight is emphasized by the way it sits on a pale green circular shape. The painting's overall mood is one of quiet contemplation, prompting viewers to consider the symbolic nature of the chain and its relationship to the sphere.
