Karl Larsen'Still Life of Flowers', Paris, Salon D'Automne, Danish Avant-Garde, 'The Four'circa 1955
circa 1955
About the Item
Signed lower right, "Karl Larsen" (Danish, 1897-1977) and painted circa 1955.
Beginning in 1917, Karl Larsen participated in numerous exhibitions in France and Denmark including the Charlottenborg Spring Exhibition (1919-20), the Salon d'Automne, Paris (1922) and the Scandinavian-French exhibition at Maison Watteau, Paris (1923). The artist's name is strongly linked with the avant-garde group 'The Four' who represented the cutting-edge of Modernism in 1920's Denmark. With the help of scholarships, (Stoltenberg 1921; Zach and Jacobsen, 1924), Larsen remained in Paris, studying and painting from 1923-27. In 1926, he received the Academy Fellowship and, in 1929, he was awarded the Vilhelm Pacht studio apartment for life which enabled him to continue painting without concern for public approval. In his later years, Larsen was sought after as a portrait painter. He also mastered and taught a variety of other media including sculpture, graphics, marquetry, mosaic and stained glass. Karl Larsen is among the most prominent of Denmark's early-20th-century modernists and his work may be found in the permanent collections of national museums including the National Museum of Art, The Museum of Art and Design and the National Gallery in Oslo.

- 'Still Life of Daffodils', Paris Modernist, Royal Danish Academy, CharlottenborgBy Viggo RorupLocated in Santa Cruz, CASigned lower right, 'V. Rorup' for Viggo Julius Rorup (Danish, 1903-1971) and dated 1963. Exhibited: 'Copenhagen Art Association Exhibition, 1964', from exhibition stamp, verso, on stretcher bar. A substantial and vibrant Post-Impressionist still-life showing a profusion of fresh-cut daffodils informally arranged in a jade-green vase and set on a table in a sitting-room. Viggo Rorup was still a student at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts when he made his 1928 debut at the Charlottenborg Palace. Following his graduation in 1930, he moved to Odsherred, where he continued his studies under Karl Bovin. Together, they founded the avante-garde group of artists named The Corner, which first introduced the principles of European Modernism to Danish painting. Rorup traveled widely, including to Italy, Austria, Spain, and, most importantly, to France, where his studies of the Impressionists and the Post-Impressionists had a great stylistic impact on his later work. As Rorup continued to paint in the south of France, his palette grew brighter and the earlier, more defined, contours of his forms became subsumed into scintillating nuances of light. We are pleased to offer this elegant and dazzling still-life from the artist's late period.
