Ludvig Jacobsen
'Rural Farm Scene', Post-Impressionist, Paris Salon, Royal Academy, Benezit

Circa 1925

About the Item

Signed lower right, 'Ludvig Jacobsen' (Danish, 1890-1957) and painted circa 1925. Ludvig Jacobsen first studied at Copenhagen's Technical School, working initially as a book-illustrator and, subsequently, as a fashion designer. Strongly influenced by the French Romantic movement, Jacobsen was particularly called to the saturated palette of Eugene Delacroix whose work he discovered in Paris and from whom he also derived his strong compositional sense. Jacobsen was also an admirer of Rubens, Watteau, and Corot- artists notable for valuing color above line as the foundational element in their work. This was also very much the case with Jacobsen whose painterly and softly-contoured figural works exemplify that quality. Jacobsen traveled and painted widely, including to Berlin and Dresden (1923), France and Spain (1929), Mallorca (1933) and again to France (1937). He exhibited widely and with success, including at the Paris Salon (1928-29) and frequently at the Charlottenborg. Jacobsen was a recipient of the Serdin Hansens Prize (1921), the 1923 scholarships from both the Royal Academy and Raben-Levetzau as well as the 1929 Benzon scholarship. Jacobsen's works may be found in the permanent collections of museums throughout Denmark and in many prominent public and private collections. Reference: Weilbach, Dansk Kunstnerleksikon; E.

    Ernst Link (Swiss, ∗ 14th of October, 1874 in Windisch, † 29th of June, 1935 in Bern) Stöckli with Clothesline • Oil painting on canvas approx. 25.5 x 26.5 cm • Pine frame approx. 34.5 x 35.5 cm (obvious signs of age) • Signed lower right A most pleasant depiction of a typical ‘Stöckli’ in bright sunshine with the a few shirts on the washing line, somewhere in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland. Such small cottages would sit next to the large farmhouses and upon retirement the old couple would move into it, to make room for the next generation to take up residence in the main building and run the farm. The Painting is in pleasingly good and clean condition, with no damage or restoration Ernst Linck was an important representative of the "Berner Schule" (Bernese school) led by the famous Ferdinand Hodler, which also included Traugott Senn, Emil Cardinaux, Eduard Boss...
