Memory

On July 13, 1932, Maria Elizabeth Dorothea Verdoorn died in Amsterdam at the age of 91. Beloved wife, sister, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

Please do not offer condolences.
The analog collage “The Artist is Dead” evokes memories, uniting beauty with the inevitable: death.
The collage was created on an original hourglass from 1932, which notifies a family of the death of a loved one. We searched the online archives of Amsterdam residents and found Marie. Could she have looked like this? We don’t know; it’s an artistic representation.
