Reclaimed by Nature

Photographed in Italy, Portugal, United Kingdom and Czechia

Everything people build belongs to them only for a time. Then come water, wind, roots and ivy. A hall turns into a forest, a staircase into a bed of moss, a factory floor into a greenhouse. These are the most peaceful pictures of the abandoned world: nothing is lost here, it is only passed on.

The works on this page show rooms and buildings that nature has taken back, mostly from the series ELEMENTAL, INDUSTRIAL GARDENS and SECRET GARDENS, photographed in Italy, Belgium, Portugal and Georgia. Every work is available as an art print in three finishes and three sizes, direct from the artist.

Every work as an open edition in three finishes and four sizes from €90.00, lab-made in Germany with a 75-year colour guarantee. Larger sizes as a numbered limited edition on request.

What you get

Sven Fennema has photographed abandoned villas, churches, theatres and industrial sites across Europe since 2008. Every print is made individually to order in a leading German fine art lab. Depending on the finish, your work comes signed directly from the artist; very large works the lab hands straight to a freight carrier.

  • Lab quality

    No poster print: fine art prints are exposed on Fuji Crystal Archive paper, canvases stretched on wooden frames, aluminium either printed directly or faced with Fuji Crystal paper, all in a leading German fine art lab.

  • Craftsmanship from Germany

    Every work is made individually after your order: mounting, stretching and final inspection by hand, usually within 7–10 working days.

  • 75-year colour guarantee

    The lab guarantees the colour fastness of the prints for 75 years. Your picture will look the same in decades as on the first day.

    Open edition in three finishes and four sizes from €90.00, larger sizes as a numbered limited edition with certificate. Personal advice, insured shipping, free shipping to Germany from €100.00, 14 days right of withdrawal.
