About The Artwork
Subject: The painting captures the Gate of the Columns at the Alcazaba de Málaga. This horseshoe arch includes white marble shafts and the intricate Corinthian capitals that once adorned a Roman amphitheater. The gate stands as part of the lower fortifications of the Alcazaba, serving a dual purpose - as a defensive structure during times of siege and as an elegant entranceway to the palaces beyond during times of peace. Description: The painting highlights the layering of history that is typical of cities that have been continuously inhabited and adapted. The linework, paint, and shadow in this composition hint at the different historical periods of the component parts, and though each is distinct like in the construction itself, the painting synthesis all to a compelling and thought-provoking whole. Process: Plein-air drawing, painted in the studio.
