The Stillness That Steers: A Portrait of De Statige Stuurman

Published on 5 November 2024 at 11:10

This acrylic portrait painting captures a moment of noble stillness—the figure of De Statige Stuurman, one of Efteling’s captivating live statues, rendered in expressive brushstrokes and layered tones.

With his straight posture, weathered uniform, and unwavering gaze, the Stately Helmsman becomes more than a performance—he becomes a symbol of presence, discipline, and mystery. The brushwork leans into texture and shadow, hinting at the tension behind holding a pose, and the magic of coming to life in the most unexpected moments.
