The canvas is divided into two parts with two lit candles against a dark and light background. The candle on the black background, that is, in the dark, shines brighter, and therefore burns faster. ✨ Richter's photorealistic works relate to 19th-century German romantic painters, who saw themselves as mediators between divine nature and painted art. Richter takes the concept of mediation a step further, by painting a moment that has already been captured. The painting adopts the still-life tradition of 'memento mori' – a reminder of death. The fleeting light of the candles is fixed forever as a painted image. See the painting up close in #CapturingTheMoment at Tate Modern, an exhibition that celebrates the relationship between painting and photography. 🖌️📷 Gerhard Richter, Two Candles 1982, YAGEO Foundation Collection, Taiwan © Gerhard Richter 2023.」7月20日 1時48分
