The Wick Culture - Discover Rob & Nick Carter, Lemon after Jan Pauwell Gillemans

Discover Rob & Nick Carter, Lemon after Jan Pauwell Gillemans

Lemon after Jan Pauwell Gillemans,
2024, Rob & Nick Carter

This zesty new supergloss print is a limited edition exclusively for Dulwich Picture Gallery by artist duo Rob and Nick Carter as part of their Dutch Golden Age series (2012 – 2018). In response to a painting by a follower of Jan Pauwel Gillemans the Elder, known as Still life with Crayfish (1686) held in Dulwich Picture Gallery’s collection, the husband and wife duo created their own rendition.

Honing in on the half-peeled, exquisitely rendered lemon, seen in the bottom right hand corner of the original oil painting, Rob and Nick Carter extracted the image of the fruit, manipulated the image using digital technology to enhance the colour, and producing a limited edition print. The resulting work magnifies a moment from art history, encouraging a prolonged view on this detail of the still life tableau, and prompting a fresh way of engaging with the historical work.

The London-based duo, who are known for their adapting new technologies while referencing historical processes in a range of media – said: “Our preoccupation with the Dutch Golden Age series primarily lies in the interest with the boundaries between the real and the imagined, the analogue and the digital, and the traditional and the contemporary.”

The prints are £1,100 + VAT unframed and £1,300 + VAT framed.
