It is a illustrating 19th Century Winter scene. This painting is also printed in my catalogue of 2018, and was first exhibited on Mount Tamborine Queensland in April 2018. It is an imaginary scene I had in mind after remembering the cold I endured during my childhood years in the Netherlands. Yet I also remembered the excitement when the snow started to fall and stayed on the ground for weeks, the rivers and lakes were frozen over, and how cozy it was sitting near the fireplace looking outside, seeing other children plying in the snow, and people ice scating on the frozen lakes.

All art by Jos Kivits

The feeling of holding something in your hands that is hundred of years old, like the pewter and the ceramic Japanese vase, gives me a feeling of agelessness. It vibrates through my entire body and to spend weeks painting something like this climaxes to an explosion in my imagination. A painting of this calibre is and always will be an eye catcher when people realise it has not been created with shortcuts and tricks, but genuinely by discipline and artistry without smoke and mirrors. It is a work I cannot get away from as it is in my soul to paint what every eye can see without the help of any kind of trickery or Painted in 2005 and several times perfected and varnished over the years. This very work has never been exhibited, although one similar depicting different objects was revealed in Jos’ 2018 exhibition.

The style and technique is considered ‘Classical European’ and first exposed to Australia by some well-known earlier artists like Hans Heysen, Arthur Streeton, & Besie Davidson.
