When purchasing, the work can be picked up in 's-Gravenzande (near The Hague (Scheveningen), Rotterdam and Delft and 10 minutes from the beach). The term for collection is very generous with advance payment. In other words, the buyer can pick up the work weeks or even months later and, if possible, combine it with a visit to one of the aforementioned cities or the beach. The work can also be sent via PostNL. Our shipping days are Tuesday and Thursday.
Peter van Poppel belongs to the post-war generation of new realists, which manifested itself in the seventies. He was separate from any group and developed completely independently. He developed his own style by focusing on the great painters of all ages and studying their masterpieces. He received his education in Utrecht (School for the Graphic Arts) and still lives in the Dom city. The city of surrealism has not left him untouched. Peter van Poppel paints with great attention to detail, with humor and endearment, a sweet and naive realism with alienations in the form. He thus strings together a litany of small things and beloved people from his circle of vision. He prefers to look for the child in man, as if he wants to convey the comforting feeling of paradise.
Started in 1966 on the Utrecht art market, then every few years solo exhibitions in Amsterdam at Galerie "Jurka" and Galerie "Petit". Exhibitions in Utrecht at Gallery "De Reiger" and Gallery "Jas".
