IT’S MAGIC – The Original Artwork by Nina Nolte
An Original of the series THE BEST IS YET TO COME of the Nina Nolte Collection Nr. 2
Description of the artwork IT´S MAGIC
IT’S MAGIC is a captivating square artwork that depicts an elegant middle-aged lady standing waist-deep in a pool. The composition is viewed from behind the woman, facing right to left. She is dressed in a light green bathing suit that complements her poised and sophisticated demeanor.
Take a look at this video showing how Nina created the art work.
The water in the pool is depicted with remarkable clarity, allowing the viewer to see her body through the water and even the tiles at the bottom of the pool. This attention to detail enhances the sense of realism and immersion in the scene.
On her head, the lady wears an intricately twisted turban with a green and white pattern, under which her brown hair peeks out. This stylish accessory adds a touch of glamour and elegance to her appearance. A large white pearl earring adorns her left ear, adding to the overall sophistication of her look.
Her face is shown in semi-profile, allowing a glimpse of her features without fully revealing her expression. She wears sleek black sunglasses, suggesting an air of mystery and poise, as she seems to be observing something outside the frame of the picture.
In her left hand, the lady holds a glass, poised gracefully as if she is about to take the last sip of red wine. This small detail adds a layer of narrative to the artwork, inviting viewers to imagine the story behind the scene—perhaps a leisurely afternoon by the pool, enjoying a moment of solitude and reflection.
IT’S MAGIC was created in the studio of Nina Nolte in Düsseldorf in November 2011. Nolte’s expertise in capturing the elegance and nuance of everyday moments is evident in this piece. Her meticulous attention to detail and her ability to convey mood and atmosphere through her compositions make this artwork a standout piece in her collection.

Background to the Nina Nolte series THE BEST IS YET TO COME
The idea for this series, which comprises twenty different artworks of various sizes, came to Nina Nolte when she regularly met with her friends in one of their pools in Marbella to refresh herself after work in her studio. The artist recalls the confidential conversations among the women with this series. The captured moment represents a pause in conversation, during which the woman/women reflect on what has been said. By using a bird’s-eye view, she intentionally places the viewer in the role of a voyeur.
