The painting Lady at the Railing from 1950 by Frans Masereel shows a contemplative woman against a maritime backdrop. The turbulent colours of the sky—a mix of blue, green, and pink—underscore the melancholic mood of the work. Masereel, known for his powerful woodcuts and commitment to social issues, created Lady at the Railing” as a work that reflects his characteristic expressiveness.
