Orchidee II (Orchid II)
A lush and enigmatic depiction of an orchid rendered in Richter's characteristically ambiguous visual language, where the delicate bloom appears to emerge from a tension between clarity and abstraction. The work balances botanical detail with an atmospheric softness, inviting the viewer to question the boundary between representation and painterly dissolution. True to Richter's ongoing exploration of perception and image-making, the orchid becomes both a familiar subject and an elusive, meditative presence.
