{"product_id":"ruine-van-tjandi-sewoe-cornelis-springer","title":"Ruïne van Tjandi Sewoe - Cornelis Springer","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed lithograph by Cornelis Springer documenting the Candi Sewu temple ruins in Java, capturing the architectural precision and atmospheric decay of the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lithograph depicts the Candi Sewu temple complex in Central Java, Indonesia. Cornelis Springer, primarily known for his meticulous depictions of Dutch townscapes, here turns his attention to the archaeological remains of this Buddhist site. The composition frames the central temple structure between two foreground ruins, creating a sense of depth that draws the viewer into the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpringer employs a precise, analytical approach to the stone masonry. He captures the weathered textures of the volcanic rock, the encroaching vegetation, and the specific architectural details of the Javanese temple style. The work reflects the nineteenth-century European fascination with colonial exploration and the documentation of distant historical sites. The light is soft and even, allowing for a clear reading of the structural forms and the decorative carvings on the temple walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike his later works focused on the urban centres of the Netherlands, this piece demonstrates his ability to apply a disciplined, observational technique to non-European subjects. The inclusion of small figures in the middle distance provides a sense of scale, contrasting the human presence with the monumental, decaying stone structures. The print serves as a record of the site during a period when such locations were being systematically surveyed and documented by European artists and scholars. The monochromatic palette emphasises the form and volume of the architecture, stripping away the distraction of colour to focus on the geometry and the physical state of the ruins. This print is a fine example of the intersection between topographical documentation and the Romantic interest in the passage of time as seen through architectural decay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/edinburgh-from-st-anthony-chapel-richard-parkes-bonington\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eEdinburgh from St. Anthony Chapel - Richard Parkes Bonington — Richard Parkes Bonington\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/lion-of-the-atlas-eugene-delacroix\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLion of the Atlas - Eugène Delacroix — Eugène Delacroix\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cornelis Springer","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58479003926863,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58479025553743,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58479025586511,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58479025619279,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58479025652047,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58479025684815,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58479025717583,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58479025750351,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58479025783119,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58479025815887,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58479025848655,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58479025881423,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Ru-ne-van-Tjandi-Sewoe_Poster_CompositorV1_1786329610285.jpg?v=1786745573","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/ruine-van-tjandi-sewoe-cornelis-springer","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
