Product Description
Stage light at a premiere. Neoclassical Pop Art's original take on the famous score portrait turns it into a new oil with a concert-hall glow. Purple and turquoise wrap the composer as he frowns over his score, and the oil gives that concentration a contemporary pulse.
Purple and turquoise make the score portrait glow like a concert hall in “Beethoven, The Solemn Mass Portrait”, Neoclassical Pop Art's new Pop oil. It pays homage to the oil painting “A Portrait of Ludwig van Beethoven” by Joseph Karl Stieler, created in 1820 and held at the Beethoven-Haus in Bonn.
Ludwig van Beethoven was a revolutionary German composer and pianist and one of the most admired composers in the history of Western music; his works rank amongst the most performed of the classical music repertoire.
Commissioned by Beethoven's friends, Franz and Antonie Brentano, the painting shows Beethoven seven years before his death, at the age of 49.
Holding a pencil in his hand the painting portrays Beethoven working on the notes to his "Missa Solemnis."
