{"product_id":"half-monster-half-meisje-lucebert","title":"Half monster, half meisje - Lucebert","description":"\u003cp\u003eA striking ink drawing by Dutch CoBrA artist Lucebert, depicting a hybrid figure that merges human and monstrous forms through raw, expressive lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLucebert, born Lubertus Jacobus Swaanswijk, was a central figure in the Dutch post-war avant-garde. Associated with the CoBrA movement, his work often rejects formal academic constraints in favour of a raw, spontaneous approach. This ink drawing, dated 27 February 1975, demonstrates his characteristic use of line to construct hybrid, unsettling figures that blur the boundaries between the human and the monstrous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition features a figure whose lower half is recognisably human, depicted in a simple, striped skirt. Above this, the form transforms into a jagged, creature-like entity. The upper portion is defined by sharp, angular lines and aggressive hatching, suggesting a chaotic or predatory nature. Lucebert employs a direct, unrefined line quality, typical of his graphic output, which prioritises immediate emotional expression over anatomical accuracy. The contrast between the static, grounded legs and the frenetic, distorted upper form creates a sense of movement and instability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a poet and painter, Lucebert often integrated his literary sensibilities into his visual art. His drawings frequently function as visual poems, where the subject matter is less a literal representation and more an exploration of psychological states. The work is signed and dated in the lower right corner, a common practice for the artist, who viewed his daily output as a continuous stream of creative activity. This piece provides a clear example of his ability to conjure complex, often dark, narratives through minimal means. The stark black ink against the white paper surface emphasises the graphic power of his mark-making, allowing the viewer to focus entirely on the transformation occurring within the figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/kiss-of-medusa-wilhelm-kotarbinski\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eKiss of Medusa - Wilhelm Kotarbinski — Wilhelm Kotarbinski\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-beautiful-bird-revealing-the-unknown-to-a-pair-of-lovers-from-the-constellations-series-joan-miro\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Beautiful Bird Revealing the Unknown to a Pair of Lovers (from the Constellations series) - Joan Miró — Joan Miró\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lucebert","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473331327311,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473339879759,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58473339912527,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473339945295,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473339978063,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473340010831,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473340043599,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473340076367,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473340109135,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58473340141903,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58473340174671,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58473340207439,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Half-monster-half-meisje_Poster_CompositorV1_1786303874269.jpg?v=1786683034","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/half-monster-half-meisje-lucebert","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
