Joseph Uhl ( 1877 - 1945): Sommersonne (Nude Boy Standing on a Lakeside Rock) (Circa 1920)

*
A seller on eBay Germany has recently listed this beautiful etching of a nude boy standing on a rock, titled "Sommersonne" (Summer Sun). I have listed this artist on the blog previously and if you would like more information on Joseph Uhl, just search his name in the search form above. His prints are amongst the most detailed and beautiful that I have ever seen. He was indeed a master of the intaglio print. He specialized in children as his subject matter. The price on this example is a bit out of my reach right now but I can dream.

Standing Male Nude - French School - Dated 1880

*
Well my pockets were not quite deep enough to capture this beautifully executed late 19th century (1880) standing male nude. It is from an unknown French School and is illegibly signed. It sold a few minutes ago on eBay Germany. Oh well, I will keep on watching the sky, there have to be more of these out there in some European attic.

I was browsing eBay France last week and I stumbled (one of my favorite past-times, I have the x-rays and MRI's to prove it) onto the French edition of this exhibition catalog of Drawings from the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm which took place at The Drawing Center, NYC, NY in 1987. I checked Amazon.com and they had an English translation so I ordered a copy. The exhibition was a celebration of The Drawing Center's 10th anniversary. The French drawings in the collection of the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm are celebrated throughout the world. The exhibition was a comprehensive review of all the various artistic periods in France from 1400 to 1900 and many of the major influences of featured artists of that time period.  I have posted the few strictly academic studies that I found (above), not to diminish the other beautiful drawings in the publication. If you love French drawings like I do, then add this publication to your library.

Sarah Flintzer: Die Unschuld (The Innocence)

*
Galerie Bassenge, Berlin-Grunewald, DE has listed this beautiful atmospheric painting titled "Die Unschuld" (Innocence) by the German painter Sarah Flintzer. She was the wife of Hugo Flintzer (1862-1917).Both she and her husband studied at the Weimar Art School. Unfortunately, there is little known about her history other than she and her husband collaborated during their careers. From 1881 to 1884 they studied at the Max Thedy Art Institute in Weimar. Unfortunately, today many of their works are missing. Hugo painted mostly atmospheric landscapes, well within the meaning of the Art Noveau movement. Stylistically her work is well within the tradition of Sascha Schneider, who taught at the Weimar Art School from 1904.
