The artwork titled “Pharmacy” by Luc Tuymans, created in 2003 in Belgium, is an oil painting on canvas measuring 157.5 x 190 cm. It belongs to the New European Painting art movement and falls within the cityscape genre.
This piece captures a soft, almost ethereal scene characterized by muted tones and simplified forms. Central to the composition is a green cross, typically associated with pharmacies, set against the pale hues of the surrounding pavement and building surfaces. The use of minimal details and a subdued palette lends the artwork an abstract quality, evoking a contemplative atmosphere. The play of light and shadow in the composition enhances the sense of depth and adds a subtle tension, beckoning the viewer to delve deeper into the contextual significance of the depicted space. The overall effect is one of quiet reflection, typical of Tuymans’ distinctive style.
