Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour, 1836 Grenoble – 1904 BuréPETIT BOUQUET, 1891Öl auf Leinwand.42 x 33,5 cm.Links unten signiert und datiert „Fantin 91“. Verso mit mehreren Etiketten.In Louis XV-Stilrahmen.Beigegeben eine Bestätigung von Sylvie Brame, Paris, vom 16. Dezember 2020, über die Aufnahme des hier angebotenen Gemäldes in den in Vorbereitung befindlichen Catalogue Raisonné der Galerie Brame & Lorenceau, in Kopie. Auf einer knapp horizontal im Bildraum liegenden Tischplatte, deren schräger Abschluss rechts am Rand zu erkennen ist, steht eine kolbenförmige Glasvase mit Blumen verschiedener Couleur, die in ihren unterschiedlichen Ausrichtungen den Bildraum vor beigem Fond erobern. Fantin-Latour hatte mit vielen Künstlern seiner Zeit Kontakt, er lernte nicht nur Edgard Degas, Èdouard Manet, Berthe Morisot und James McNeill Whistler kennen, sondern begegnete 1859 auch Gustave Courbet, in dessen Atelier er auch arbeitete. Nachdem er 1864 in der Royal Academy of Arts in London ausgestellt hatte, waren seine Blumenarrangements sehr beliebt, auf deren Produktion er sich sich nun konzentrierte – eines davon bieten wir mit diesem Lot an, das weniger dem Impressionismus der Zeit, als viel mehr dem Realismus verpflichtet ist.Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour war ein französischer Maler, der von seinem Vater, einem Portraitisten, ausgebildet wurde. Er setzte seine Ausbildung an der École des Beaux-Arts in Paris fort, besuchte regelmäßig den Louvre, wo er große Meister kopierte. Hier entwickelte er eine Begeisterung für die venezianische Malerei, vor allem für die von Tiziano Vecellio (1485/89-1576) und Paolo Veronese (1528-1588). Er schloss Freundschaft mit Édouard Manet (1832-1883), Berthe Morisot (1841-1895) und später mit James Abbot McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), der ihn mit nach England nahm und einer Klientel vorstellte, die sich für seine Stillleben, im Speziellen die Blumenstillleben, begeisterte. Außerdem mit dem realistischen Maler Gustave Courbet (1819-187) und den Impressionisten befreundet, behielt er nichtsdestotrotz seinen eigenen Stil und orientierte seine Malerei hin zu Gruppenportraits, wovon die berühmtesten Exemplare im Musée d’Orsay aufbewahrt werden. Später zog er sich in die Normandie nach Buré zurück und widmete sich dort fast ausschließlich seinen Blumensträußen, die er in seinem Garten pflückte.Provenienz:Mrs Edwards, London.Christie’s, London, 27.

Philip Wilson Steer (British, 1860-1942), ‘Nursemaid’ Original Lithograph on wove paper, unsigned (1892). Framed and glazed. Fine impression of the only edition issued as a supplement to The Albemarle, 1892 edition of c.200. The only Lithograph by Wilson Steer and therefore scarce. Steer was a leading figure in the British Impressionist movement. He was rejected by the Royal Academy of Art, and so studied in Paris between 1882 and 1884, firstly at the Académie Julian, and then in the École des Beaux Arts under Alexandre Cabanel, where he became a follower of the Impressionist school. In Paris he was greatly influenced by seeing works by Édouard Manet and James McNeill Whistler and the French impressionists. Some foxing to paper. 22.5cm x 16.5cm.
RENOIR PIERRE-AUGUSTE: (1841-1919) French Impressionist Artist. Exceptional hardcover 4.5 x 6.5 ledger book, 116 pages, containing 14 pages filled out in Renoir´s hand, recording the sales of his paintings, listing those in deposit, where they are, etc.. Written to the front cover `Tableaux´ ("Paintings"). The opening page bears a red pencil annotation, `Durand Ruel´, and the next 14 pages are dated from 1882 to 1885, recording various financial transactions. Several of these entries record amounts received from the sales of his works, and in several instances he writes names or descriptions of the works, such as "Portrait de Mme. C dans un jardin", "Femme nue", "Jeune Kabyle", "Vues Venise", "Saltimbanque", "Naples et Alger", "jardin coquelicot", "Jardin Montmartre", "Samary (Pastel)", and many more. Few other pages with multiple payments records, painting prices, financial transactions, amounts received on account, dates, etc.. In two instances, in 1883, Renoir writes the name `Manet´ presumably referring to his friend and fellow Edouard Manet. These entries provide valuable insight into Renoir's life and work, and as such this ledger represents an important piece for Renoir research. Very small minor age wear, otherwise VG Paul Durand-Ruel (1831-1922) French Art Dealer. Probably the most important commercial advocate of impressionists, providing monetary support to his painters and solo-exhibitions. He counted Degas, Monet, Manet and Renoir among his clients.

Claude Monet (1840-1926), Sketch on Paper Signed (lower right) Image Size: 11 7/8 x 8 7/8 inches (30.3cm x 22.6cm) Claude Oscar Monet was a French impressionist painter who brought the study of the transient effects of natural light to its most refined expression. Monet was born on 1840, in Paris, but he spent most of his childhood in Le Havre. There, in his teens, he studied drawing; he also painted seascapes outside with the French painter Eugene Louis Boudin. By 1859 Monet had committed himself to a career as an artist and began to spend as much time in Paris as possible. During the 1860s he was associated with the preimpressionist painter Edouard Manet, and with other aspiring French painters destined to form the impressionist school. WE DO NOT GIVE ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTEE OR ASSUME ANY LIABILITY OF ANY KIND IN RESPECT OF ANY LOT WITH REGARD TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DESCRIPTION, SIZE, QUALITY, CONDITION, ATTRIBUTION, AUTHENTICITY, RARITY, IMPORTANCE, MEDIUM, PROVENANCE, EXHIBITION HISTORY, LITERATURE, OR HISTORICAL RELEVANCE.
λ JOHN CYRIL HARRISON (BRITISH 1898-1985) MATURE AND IMMATURE RINGED PLOVERS Watercolour Signed (lower right) 18.5 x 30.5cm (7¼ x 12 in.)Provenance: By descent to The Hon. Mrs James Tennant Please Note: This lot was likely purchased by a family member of Oskar Reinhart and then passed down by descent Please note measurements do not include the frame unless otherwise stated. Oskar Reinhart was born in Winterthur, Switzerland in 1885. His father Theodor Reinhart (1849-1919) worked as a textile merchant running Volkart Brothers, which was founded by his wife's family, and facilitated the trade of cotton across the continent mainly from India. Theodor was an active art collector and devoted to supporting the careers of promising artists. By the age of 39 Oskar, inspired by his father, retired from the family firm to focus on building his already established art collection. Reinhart travelled across Europe visiting museums and private collectors devoting his time to art patronage. Reinhart purchased villa Am Römerholz in his hometown which was to become his own private gallery to house his collection as well as his private residence. In 1940 Reinhart donated the Austrian, German and Swiss works of art from his collection to the town of Winterthur which was housed from 1951 in the Museum Oskar Reinhart, now within the Kunst Museum including pieces by Caspar David Friedrich and Adolph Menzel. The rest of the collection was bequeathed to the Swiss Confederation including his home in 1958 and this opened to the public in 1970 and is still available to visit today. The original bequest included over five hundred paintings and several thousand drawings.Reinhart was particularly drawn to French Impressionists and he enjoyed mixing old masters with modern masters arranging displays in order of form and colour rather than period. It was the focus on colour and light used by the Impressionists that sparked Reinharts' interest. Reinhart was conscious of seeking talent and artists with potential in order to support and encourage their careers. The collection on display at Am Römerholz includes works by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Vincent Van Gogh, Edouard Manet, Paul Cezanne and Alfred Sisley amongst a selection of old masters such as Pieter Brughel the Elder.

Claude Monet, born on November 14, 1840, in Paris, France, was a renowned French painter and a key figure in the Impressionist movement. He is widely celebrated for his revolutionary approach to capturing the effects of light and color in his artwork. Monet's early artistic training took place in Le Havre, where he developed a passion for plein air (outdoor) painting. His interest in capturing the changing qualities of light and atmosphere led him to experiment with loose brushwork and the use of vibrant colors. Alongside fellow artists such as Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Édouard Manet, and Edgar Degas, Monet founded the Impressionist movement in the 1870s. The term "Impressionism" derived from Monet's famous painting "Impression, Sunrise," which showcased his distinctive style and approach to capturing fleeting moments and atmospheric conditions. Monet's subjects often included landscapes, seascapes, gardens, and natural scenes. He frequently depicted his own garden at Giverny, where he lived for many years. Monet's focus on capturing the ever-changing qualities of light and color led to series paintings, where he would depict the same subject at different times of the day or different seasons. His brushwork, characterized by loose and visible strokes, aimed to capture the essence and atmosphere of a scene rather than focusing on precise details. Monet's use of vibrant colors and his ability to depict the play of light on surfaces created a sense of movement and vitality in his paintings. Throughout his career, Monet's work evolved, and he continued to push the boundaries of his artistic style. His later series, such as the Water Lilies and Rouen Cathedral, showcased his mastery of capturing the nuances of light and the essence of his subjects. Claude Monet's impact on the art world cannot be overstated. His innovative techniques and dedication to capturing the ever-changing world around him laid the foundation for modern art movements. Today, his works are celebrated and admired for their beauty, vibrancy, and ability to evoke emotion. As one of the most influential artists in history, Monet's paintings continue to be exhibited in major art museums worldwide, attracting countless admirers who are captivated by his unique vision and artistic genius.Measures 7.02 x 10.01 Printed circa 1970sVerso is blank.Mounted to archival quality paper.

Giuseppe de Nittis, Italian 1846-1884- Portrait of a lady, bust-length, wearing a star brooch; oil on canvas, signed 'De Nittis' (lower right), 51 x 39.7 cm. (unframed). Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Giuseppe de Nittis is often hailed as one of the most significant Impressionist painters from Italy. Early in his career, he was associated with Telemaco Signorini (1835-1901) and the Macchiaioli, a group which, like the French Impressionists, rejected traditional Academic principles which placed history painting above landscape painting and portraiture, instead promoting an approach which embraced a greater realism informed by the practice of painting 'en plein air'. Indeed, de Nittis was a consummate portraitist who worked both in oils and pastels, with his sitters among some of the most important figures in 19th-century French culture, including Émile Zola (1840-1902), Édouard Manet (1832-1883) and Louis Duranty (1833-1880). The features of the sitter in the present work are very close to those of his wife Léontine, as can be seen, for example, in his 1882 pastel portrait entitled 'Winter Day, or Portrait of Madame de Nittis' held at the Pinacoteca Giuseppe de Nittis in Barletta, Italy. We are grateful to Professor Fausto Minervini for confirming the attribution of the present lot based on photographs, and for suggesting a date to between 1867 and 1870.
Pierre Ernest Prins, French 1838-1913- A rural landscape with cypress trees, and buildings on a hill beyond; pastel on paper, signed 'Pierre Prins' (lower left), 29.1 x 19 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Prins was closely connected with Édouard Manet (1832-1883) through his wife, Fanny Claus (1846-1877), a talented violinist who also modelled for Manet, notably featuring in his 1869 painting 'Le Balcon' [Musée d'Orsay, Paris, RF 2772]. Shortly after Manet produced his first picture in pastels in 1862, Prins also began to work in the medium, and continued to do so throughout his career. Indeed, Prins is now known principally as a pastellist, with most of his prolific output today in the collection of the Musée Carnavalet in Paris. The present work is characteristic of Prins's oeuvre, with the artist's clear outlining of forms and his use of pastel to evoke swirling skies and trees lending the work a distinctly Post-Impressionist accent.
CHABRIER EMMANUEL: (1841-1894) French Composer and Pianist. A letter of excellent association, A.L.S., `Emmanuel Chabrier´, two pages, 8vo, La Memtrolle pas Mettray, 29th October 1888, to Paul Verlaine, In French. Chabrier writes to his friend Verlaine, and states `Mon cher Verlaine. En vous quittant l´autre jour je suis allé chez Vanier, quai St. Michel, demander ainsi que vous m´y aviez autorisé, votre volume l´Amour. On m´a répondu que l´on n´avait pas le moindre volume à me remettre´ (Translation: `My dear Verlaine. When I left you the other day, I went to Vanier's, Quai St. Michel, to ask for what you had authorized me to do, your volume l'Amour. I was told that they did not have any kind of volume to give me´) Chabrier further says `Veuillez donc, je vous prie, être assez aimable pour mettre, quand vous passerez chez ce Vanier, un mot de dédicace sur un exempl. de cet ouvrage et me le faire expédier ici, où je potasse encore pendant 6 semaines…´ (Translation: `Therefore, please be kind enough to put, when you pass by Vanier´s place, a word of dedication on a copy of this book and have it shipped to me here, where I'm still for 6 more weeks´) With blank integral leaf. Overall small foxing, otherwise G Chabrier was associated with some of the leading artists of his time, writers, poets and painters. Among his closest friends was the painter Edouard Manet. Chabrier himself collected Impressionist paintings long before they became fashionable. Léon Vanier (1847-1896) French Bookseller and Verlaine´s Editor. Chabrier refers to Verlaine´s work Amour, published in March 1888, six months before the present letter was written.
RENOIR PIERRE-AUGUSTE: (1841-1919) French Impressionist painter. A.L.S., Renoir, one page, 8vo, Cagnes, 12th January 1910, to Mademoiselle Paule Gobillard, in French. Renoir writes, in part, 'Veuillez etre mon interprete aupres de votre soeur et de Julie [Manet] pour leur exprimer tous mes voeux de bonne sante. D'apres bien des lettres la sante de votre soeur me parait meilleure et j'espere que la jeunesse par la force finira par l'emporter sur la cruelle maladie. Moi je suis simplement heureux de voir que les jours vont grandir. Je n'ai pas ete malade mais pas tres entrain' (Translation: 'Please be my interpreter for your sister and Julie [Manet] to express to them all my wishes for good health. According to many letters, your sister's health seems better to me, and I hope that youth by force will end by prevailing over the cruel disease. I am simply happy to see that the days are going to grow. I was not sick but not very spirited'). With blank integral leaf. Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Renoir. A charming letter from mentor to protégé. VG Paule Gobillard (1867-1946) French artist and Post-Impressionist painter who was heavily influenced by the Impressionists. Gobillard and her sister Jeannine (who married the poet Paul Valery) were the nieces of Berthe Morisot and cousin of Julie Manet.

The original bequest included over five hundred paintings and several thousand drawings.Reinhart was particularly drawn to French Impressionists and he enjoyed mixing old masters with modern masters arranging displays in order of form and colour rather than period. It was the focus on colour and light used by the Impressionists that sparked Reinharts' interest. Reinhart was conscious of seeking talent and artists with potential in order to support and encourage their careers.

The rest of the collection was bequeathed to the Swiss Confederation including his home in 1958 and this opened to the public in 1970 and is still available to visit today.

Carl Moll was born in Vienna in 1861 to Julius Johann Franz Moll and Maria Magdalena Rosina Schmid. Inspired by his uncle Karl Schmid Moll enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna in 1880. Moll studied under Christian Gripenkerl and went on to become the assistant to Emil Jakob Schindler. Shortly after Schindler's death in 1892 Moll married the German actress Anna Sofie Bergen, the widow of Schindler. Significantly Carl Moll was one of the cofounders of the Viennese Secession alongside Josef Hoffman and Gustav Klimt. The Secession was founded by a group of Austrian painters, writers and architects in 1897 to oppose the conservatism of traditional art academies and the forumlaic teachings of the Vienna Academy of the Arts. The group sought to encourage promotion of all arts and creative thinking looking towards the future rather than themes from the past by supporting contemporary artists, both Austrian and international combining ideas from artists and designers. This movement sparked the formation of modern art in Vienna which can be seen to flourish at the turn of the century. In 1905 a number of artists broke away from the secession including Moll who went on to establish the Gallery Miethke. Moll's work is full of light and freshness. He is renowned for mesmerising landscapes and intimate still lifes. The viewer is immediately struck by the sense of harmony created across the composition through the balance of colour and attention to detail. Moll uses the shadows caused by the light hitting the trees to create depth, leading the viewer along the pathway and into the canvas. The broad fluid brushstrokes draw influence from the French neo-impressionists whose work Moll came to admire. The present lot has not been seen on the open market since its creation in the 1930s. The work is included in the catalogue raisonne published in association with the Belvedere museum, its location listed as unknown with a black and white illustration until now. Recorded in the catalogue raisonné are four other works by Carl Moll all depicting olive groves during the early 1930s. The locations include Rapallo and Volterra in Italy and Provence in France including specifically Sanary-sur-Mer which may be the subject matter of the present lot. Extensive correspondence between Carl Moll and Oskar Reinhart is stored in the archives of the Kunst Museum Winterthur. Condition Report: One pin hole to the upper left and lower left corner. Two pin holes visible to the lower right corner. There is an area of yellowing varnish to the sky which may benefit from a clean. Some very fine craquelure visible to the areas of the thickest impasto, this is hardly noticeable. Inspection under UV reveals a thick green varnish. Overall in good original condition.

Nachdem er sich entschieden hatte Maler zu werden studierte er drei Monate an der Moskauer Akademie und ging dann 1920 nach Paris, wo er sich im Kreis der Künstler vom Montparnasse niedergelassen hat und im Kreis der anderen berühmten Künstler, wie Chaim Soutine (1893-1943), Moise Kiesling (1891-1953) oder André Lanskoy (1903-1976) wirkte. 1951 hat er den Orden der Ehrenlegion erhalten.

Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour, 1836 Grenoble – 1904 Buré AUBÉPINES ROSES, 1871Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert.50 x 39 cm.Rechts oben signiert und datiert „Fantin Mai 1871“. Rückwärtige Etiketten und alte Auktionsnummern.In vergoldetem Rahmen.Vor dunklem unbestimmtem Grund ein Zweig eines rosa blühenden Weißdorns mit kleinen zarten Blüten und seinen charakteristischen gelappten sich im Spiel des Lichteinfalls den Raum bildenden Blätter. Fantin Latour hatte mit vielen Künstlern seiner Zeit Kontakt, er lernte nicht nur Edgard Degas, Èdouard Manet, Barthe Morisot und James McNeill Whistler kennen, sondern begegnete 1859 auch Gustave Courbet, in dessen Atelier er auch arbeitete. Nachdem er 1864 in der Royal Academy of Arts in London ausgestellt hatte, waren seine Blumenarrangements sehr beliebt, auf deren Produktion er sich sich nun konzentrierte – eines davon bieten wir mit diesem Los an, das weniger dem Impressionismus der Zeit, als viel mehr dem Realismus verpflichtet ist.Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour war ein französischer Maler, der von seinem Vater, einem Portraitisten, ausgebildet wurde. Er setzte seine Ausbildung an der École des Beaux-Arts in Paris fort, besuchte regelmäßig den Louvre, wo er große Meister kopierte. Hier entwickelte er eine Begeisterung für die venezianische Malerei, vor allem für die von Tiziano Vecellio (1485/89-1576) und Paolo Veronese (1528-1588). Er schloss Freundschaft mit Édouard Manet (1832-1883), Berthe Morisot (1841-1895) und später mit James Abbot McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), der ihn mit nach England nahm und einer Klientel vorstellte, die sich für seine Stillleben, im Speziellen die Blumenstillleben, begeisterte. Außerdem mit dem realistischen Maler Gustave Courbet (1819-187) und den Impressionisten befreundet, behielt er nichtsdestotrotz seinen eigenen Stil und orientierte seine Malerei hin zu Gruppenportraits, wovon die berühmtesten Exemplare im Musée d\'Orsay aufbewahrt sind.

Hagemeister, Karl -- WiesenlandschaftÖl auf Leinwand. Um 1887.69 x 96 cm.Unten links mit Pinsel in Hellrot signiert "K. Hagemeister", verso auf dem Keilrahmen mit Kreide in Blau von fremder Hand bezeichnet "No. 31276" und mit Bleistift "Wiese I", sowie mit violettem Stempel "J. 33", rotem Stempel "J 34" und weiteren handschriftlichen Annotationen.Oft ging er schon am frühen Morgen los, um die Umgebung seines Heimatortes Werder an der Havel auf der Suche nach einem geeigneten Motiv zu durchstreifen. Die märkische Landschaft mit ihrer Stille und Einsamkeit, mit ihren Seen und Wiesen, Wäldern und Sümpfen bot ihm zahlreiche Anregungen für seine Gemälde. Hier konnte Karl Hagemeister die wechselnde Lichtwirkung zu unterschiedlichen Tages- und Jahreszeiten bestens studieren. Inspiriert von der französischen Avantgarde, vor allem von den Impressionisten um Edouard Manet, mit deren Werken er sich während eines Aufenthalts in Paris 1883/84 intensiv auseinandersetzte, hellte sich Hagemeisters Farbpalette in der Folge auf, und die dunklen Farbtöne seiner Anfänge wichen zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts einer frischeren, aus der unmittelbaren Wahrnehmung des Lichts gewonnenen Farbigkeit. In dieser Phase hin zur impressionistischen Naturauffassung entstand die hier vorliegende Darstellung. Noch in nahezu streng horizontalem Bildaufbau schildert Hagemeister eine im Wind sanft bewegte Wiesenlandschaft am Ufer des Schwielowsees. Nur ein leicht der Mitte entrückter kleiner Busch und die sanfte Neigung der Grashalme durchbrechen die in Schichten gegliederte Komposition. Geprägt von den französischen Vorbildern, ist der Vordergrund fast skizzenhaft wiedergegeben. Im zarten Licht der aufgegangenen Sonne erfasst Hagemeister die wild bewachsene Uferpartie, Strich für Strich in locker nebeneinandergesetzten, fein differenzierten, sommerlich hellen und dunkleren Grüntönen. Licht und Schatten werden in Form kontrastierender oder komplementärer Reflexe aufgetragen. Nach hinten öffnet sich der Blick in eine schier endlos wirkende Weite, in der Horizont und Himmel fließend ineinander übergehen. Als Freilichtmaler wollte Hagemeister die Natur in seinen Bildern erfahrbar machen. „Die Landschaft ist still, anmutig und lebt eigentlich nur durch die Stimmung, die ich immer mehr in letzter Zeit liebte. Die Stimmung ist die Trägerin des seelischen Elements der Landschaft. (…) Wenn ich mich seelisch ausdrücken wollte, zerlegte ich den Stimmungston in zwei Töne, den Licht- und den Schattenton. (…) Auf diese Weise wurde das Kolorit meiner Bilder organisch und nicht bloß geschmackvoll zusammengestimmt.“ (zit. nach Karl Hagemeister, Kleine Selbstbiographie, Werder um 1928, o.S.). Ein schriftliches Gutachten von Dr. Hendrikje Warmt, Berlin, vom 17.09.2022, liegt vor. Das Werk wird in den Nachtrag zum Werkverzeichnis der Gemälde Hagemeisters unter der Nr.

Jean-Baptiste Armand Guillaumin 1841 Paris - 1927 Château de Grignon bei Orly/Marne Jardin à Janville-sur-Juine. 1886. Öl auf Leinwand. Links unten signiert. Verso auf der Leinwand mit französischem Zollstempel. Verso auf dem Keilrahmen mit alten Etiketten sowie handschriftlich nummeriert '7274'. 60 x 73 cm (23,6 x 28,7 in). • Guillaumin gehört mit Monet, Pissarro und Renoir zu den Begründern des Impressionismus. • Aus der wichtigsten Werkphase des Künstlers auf dem Höhepunkt impressionistischer Malerei. • 1886 ist Guillaumin bei der erfolgreichen Impressionisten-Schau Paul Durand-Ruels in New York vertreten, die die Bewegung international bekannt macht. • Seine Werke befinden sich in den wichtigsten internationalen Sammlungen, darunter das Muséed’Orsay, Paris, das Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York und das Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid. Mit einem Zertifikat des Comité Guillaumin (Stéphanie Chardeau-Botteri, Dominique Fabiani, Jacques de la Béraudière), Paris, die das Werk im Original begutachtet haben. Das Werk wird in den in Vorbereitung befindlichen zweiten Band des Catalogue raisonné aufgenommen. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Schweiz (vor ca. 20 Jahren aus Familienbesitz erhalten). „Die wahren Revolutionäre der Form erscheinen mit Édouard Manet, mit den Impressionisten Claude Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, Guillaumin und noch anderen. Sie haben sich vorgenommen, das Atelier, in dem sich die Maler seit so vielen Jahrhunderten verkrochen haben, zu verlassen und im Freien zu malen - eine einfache Tatsache mit weitreichenden Folgen. Im Freien ist das Licht nicht mehr einheitlich, sondern es gibt viele verschiedene Effekte, die die Wirkung der Dinge radikal verändern und diversifizieren. Dieses Studium des Lichts in seinen tausend Zerlegungen und Neuzusammensetzungen ist das, was man mehr oder weniger korrekt als Impressionismus bezeichnet, denn ein Gemälde wird von nun an zum Eindruck eines Augenblicks vor der Natur. [..] Die Herren Pissarro, Sisley und Guillaumin folgen Herrn Claude Monet, den man nun im offiziellen Salon antrifft, und sie streben danach, die Umgebung von Paris unter dem wahren Licht der Sonne wiederzugeben, ohne vor den ungewöhnlichsten Farbeffekten zurückzuschrecken.“ Emile Zola, Le naturalisme au Salon II, in: Le Voltaire, Jg. 3, Nr. 715, 19 Juin 1880, S. 3. Arman Guillaumin zählt zu den Impressionisten der ersten Stunde, die die Bezeichnung und das Programm dieser so bedeutenden Strömung im letzten Drittel des 19. Jahrhunderts etablieren. An der privat und unabhängig geführten Académie Suisse trifft er auf Cézanne und Pissarro, mit denen er 1863 vom offiziellen Salon abgelehnt wird. Die Künstler stellen daraufhin im Salon des Refusés aus, ausgerufen von Napoléon III, nachdem die offizielle Jury mit ihren Entscheidungen in die Kritik geraten war. Manet präsentiert dort sein berühmtes „Frühstück im Grünen“ (Musée d’Orsay, Paris) und Neuerungen außerhalb des akademischen Kunstbetriebes nehmen so ihren Anfang. Mit Pissarro und Cézanne malt er zu Beginn der 1870er Jahre in Pointoise und Auvers, wo der Förderer Dr. Paul-Ferdinand Gachet ein Haus zur Verfügung gestellt hatte. Von größter Bedeutung ist die erste, 1874 von der Künstlergruppe Société anonyme des artistes peintres, sculpteurs et graveurs in den Räumlichkeiten des Fotografen Nadar in Paris organisierte Ausstellung: ausgehend von Monets Gemälde „Impression, soleil levant“ prägt der Kunstkritiker Léon Leroy den zunächst despektierlich verwendeten Begriff des Impressionismus. Guillaumin nimmt in der Folge an sechs der acht bis zuletzt 1886 organisierten Ausstellungen teil, zudem ist er im Salon des Indépendants, der belgischen Libre esthétique und später dem Salon d’Automne zu sehen. Im Pariser Zirkel der Avantgarde ist Guillaumin bestens vernetzt und übt seinen Einfluss auch auf die Generation der Neoimpressionisten wie Seurat und Signac aus, die von seinen ungewöhnlich farbintensiven Gemälden begeistert sind. Signac erwirbt einige seiner Gemälde, ebenso Gauguin. Vincent van Gogh, mit dem er seit 1887 bekannt ist, empfiehlt seine Werke seinem Bruder Theo, der für die Kunsthandlung Goupil & Cie. tätig ist; aus dessen Privatsammlung fanden einige Eingang in das Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam. Guillaumin unterstützt den Galeristen Paul Durand-Ruel bei der Vorbereitung der großen Impressionisten-Schau in New York von 1886, bei der 42 Kisten mit 300 Werken verschifft werden. Neben Monet, Renoir, Sisley und Pissarro werden Guillaumins Ansichten von Damiette in einem der Säle mit Werken von Signac und Seurat präsentiert. Im selben Jahr erfolgt die letzte der Impressionisten-Ausstellungen, wo Guillaumins Gemälde, diesmal in der Nachbarschaft Gauguins, vor allem durch ihr Kolorit herausstechen. Die oft ins purpurviolette gehende Farbgebung und die lebhafte Faktur erscheinen den Kritikern als Kaleidoskop oder Feuerwerk. Die Motive, meist die Dörfer und Landschaften im Pariser Umland wie Damiette, Ivry-sur-Sein oder Charenton dienen zum Anlass einer Befreiung der Farbe und der Faktur. In den 1890er Jahren findet er neben Durand-Ruel Aufnahme bei den renommiertesten Pariser Galerien, darunter Goupil, Bernheim-Jeune und Druet, über die seine Werke die Aufmerksamkeit bedeutender Sammler in Europa, den USA und Russland auf sich ziehen, darunter u.a. Georges Viau, Paul Gachet oder Sergej Shtshukin. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 10.06.2023 - ca. 18.19 h +/- 20 Min.

Alfred Wolmark, Polish/British 1877-1961 - Flowers in a vase with a bowl, 1943; oil on canvas board, signed and dated on the reverse 'Alfred A Wolmark 1943', 40.3 x 30.3 cm (ARR) Provenance: Rena Behrman and thence by descent Note: Rena Behrman (1909-2017) helped to aid the escape of more than 1000 Jewish refugees from Europe to Britain during the Second World War. Items from her collection were donated to the British Museum. Wolmark was famed for his bold colour palette, influenced by French Modernism, and in an early exhibition in the 1910s at the International Society of Artists, his work was placed beside Vincent Van Gogh, as the only artist of comparable intensity. Wolmark also exhibited at the influential 'Manet and the Post-Impressionists' exhibition at the Grafton Gallery in 1910, organised by Roger Fry. Wolmark has been referred to as the 'father' of the Whitechapel Boys. He was the only artist to be included in both the Whitechapel Art Gallery's 1906 'Jewish Art and Antiquities Exhibition' and in David Bomberg and Jacob Epstein's 'Jewish Section' at the 1914 exhibition 'Twentieth-Century Art: A Review of Modern Movements'.
VLADIMIR DUBOSSARSKY & ALEXANDER VINOGRADOV1964 Moskau/ 1963 MoskauKünstlerduo seit 1994Titel: "Barbe (Gold autumn)". Datierung: 2003. Technik: Öl auf Leinwand. Maße: 195 x 145cm. Bezeichnung: Signiert und datiert unten rechts: Vinogradov Dubossarsky 2003. Nochmals signiert, betitelt, datiert und bezeichnet verso: Dubossarsky V Vinogradov A BARBe. (Gold autumn) 2003 oil oN canV. Provenienz: - Galerie Michael Schultz, Berlin (lt. Einlieferer)- Privatsammlung BayernDas Künstlerduo Vladimir Dubossarsky & Alexander Vinogradov zählt zu den Superstars der Kunstszene. In einer glatten Ästhetik zeigen sie uns das Makellose einer schönen Oberfläche, die jedoch nur scheinbar verbirgt, was darunter brodelt.In ihren großformatigen Gemälden schöpfen Dubossarsky & Vinogradov aus den Massenmedien, der Werbung oder dem Hollywood-Universum. Die Künstler vergleichen die Leinwand mit dem Celluloid des Films, wo sich alles vermischen lässt. So kombinieren sie Popkultur und Kitsch mit Kunsthistorischem, sodass Madonna, Graf Dracula und nackte Playboy-Mädchen auf Picasso, Warhol oder Van Gogh treffen. Sie verknüpfen vor allem Ost und West und paaren die russische Bildsprache des sozialistischen Realismus mit westlichen Klischees.Auch "Barbie" darf in dieser Welt nicht fehlen - sie ist die Protagonistin im hier vorgestellten Werk. In Ballettpose springt sie im Tütü vor einem herbstlichen Ambiente hinauf in den Himmel und in die Baumwipfel. Das blonde Haar ist einer Ballerina gleich zurückgenommen, während Sie mit den strahlend blauen Augen den Betrachter freudig anzublicken scheint und ihn einlädt, sich mit ihr in die Lüfte zu schwingen. Ihr gestrecktes Bein wiederholt sich in der Birke und lässt sie eins werden mit der Natur, denn auch das Herbstlaub vereinnahmt Ihren Körper in einem Wirbel. Doch gegensätzlicher könnten zwei Dinge nicht sein, nichts Natürliches ist an der Kunstfigur Barbie. Sie verkörpert den Inbegriff des weiblichen Klischees, wohlgeformt von Männerfantasien. Barbie ist ein unrealistisches Schönheitsideal, eine Puppe, die mit diesen Körperproportionen nicht lebensfähig wäre. So passt sie bestens in die hybride Bildwelt der beiden Künstler, die zwischen Schein und Sein changiert.Werke von Vladimir Dubossarsky & Alexander Vinogradov wurden u.a. gezeigt in der Moskauer Tretyakov Galerie, dem Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York oder auf der Biennale in Venedig. In der Sammlung des Centre Pompidou in Paris befindet sich eines ihrer imposantesten Werke: das 5 x 3 Meter große "Déjeuner sur l'herbe", eine Hommage an Manet, das die großen französischen Maler unbekleidet versammelt. Dubossarsky & Vinogradov haben Respekt vor den großen Namen der Kunstgeschichte, doch keine Angst. Erläuterungen zum Katalog
