Brug 1930

"Brug" (Bridge), a 1930 watercolor by Belgian Symbolist painter Léon Spilliaert, showcases the artist's signature style of muted colors and simplified forms. The bridge, a dominant feature, is rendered in muted browns and greens, with soft, hazy brushstrokes capturing the atmospheric quality of the scene. The composition is balanced, with the bridge's central placement drawing the eye toward the water flowing beneath it. The overall effect is a serene and introspective image, typical of Spilliaert's artistic approach.
