Art Description

THE SENTINEL by Robert Vanderhorst
The scene takes place on a winter’s day in the old port town of Chania, Crete. The bronze sentinel and the matriarch watch and stand guard. Where is the threat and from what direction should we be wary?

The painting was inspired by Paul Fairley’s sculpture The Sentinel and by photographs of old Crete by Alison Smith.
