the artist in his atelier

This painting is part of a concept of mine entitled "the sovereign is his empire". In former times the subject of paintings very often was the monarch with all his insignia and signs of power. Today everybody should be worth beeing shown in all his beauty and might. In a world of globalisation, the individual longs for beeing seen in his unique and special complexity, with his personal "fingerprint", so I created this special way of showing people in their personal "ambiente", together with their beloved objects like this artist in his very special world. This would be my answer of today to the old "Renaissance-Painting".
