Catherine of Braganza (c.1660) Theodorus van der Stoop Inspiration piece for Daniel C. Boyer for the Under the Influence show, Fall 2016 |
"I was inspired by Catherine of Braganza, and the portrait of her by Theodorus van der Stoop, and wanted to do a 'copy' of it -- similar to the way Joan Miró created his "Dutch Interiors" series, re-interpreting the Dutch masters.
It always fascinated me, this approach in which one makes a copy of a painting, but also keeps a high degree of originality. And I was fascinated by the beauty of van der Stoop's work."
