About the piece
Painted in 1908, 'Vertigo' is one of Léon Spilliaert's most celebrated works. Executed in India ink and colored pencil, the piece demonstrates the artist's unique ability to transform a simple staircase into an existential landscape. The solitary, silhouetted figure and the rhythmic, curving lines of the architecture evoke the brooding, melancholic atmosphere characteristic of the Belgian Symbolist movement.
