soldJul. 08, 2023Euphemia Charlton FORTUNE (1885-1969), zugeschrieben, 'Hügellandschaft' / attributed, 'A landscape with hills'
Est: €700 - €1,400Technik: Öl auf Künstlerkarton, mit Karton hinterklebt, Signatur: unten rechts signiert 'Fortune', Maße: 25 x 35 cm, Zustand: gut, Karton gewölbt, Randläsuren und Montagerückstande, leicht fleckig, Fortune war eine amerikanische (Post-) Impressionistin. Sie lernte Malerei in New York, San Francisco und Schottland und stellte später auch in Paris aus. 1922 war sie Mitgleid der 'Socetiey of Scottish Artists'. 1924 erhielt sie eine silberne Medaille für ihr Gemälde des Hafens von Saint Ives im Pariser Salon. Hauptsächlich beschäftigte sie sich mit der Landschaftsmalerei und stellte überwiegend kalifornische und europäische Ansichten dar. Doch auch Portraitmalerei gehörte zu ihrem OEuvre, sowie in späteren Jahren, das Anfertigen von Designkonzepten für die christliche Liturgie. Durch die Kürzung ihrer Signatur auf (E.) Charlton Fortune, verbarg sie ihr Geschlecht und konnte so vor einem größeren Publikum ausgestellt werden. Das gezeigte Bild könnte eine Landschaft in Schottland oder Kalifornien zeigen und besticht durch das Fortunes Wechselspiel zwischen harmonisch abgestimmten Farben, + Technique: oil on artist cardboard, backed with cardboard, Signature: signed lower right 'Fortune', Dimensions: 25 x 35 cm, Condition: good, cardboard curved, marginal tears and mounting residues, slightly stained, Commentary:Fortune was an American (Post-) impressionist. She learned painting in New York, San Francisco and Scotland and later exhibited in Paris. In 1922 she was a member of the 'Socetiey of Scottish Artists'. In 1924 she received a silver medal for her painting of the harbor of Saint Ives at the Paris Salon. She was mainly engaged in landscape painting, predominantly Californian and European views. But portrait painting was also part of her oeuvre, as well as in later years, making design concepts for the Christian liturgy. By shortening her signature to '(E.) Charlton Fortune', she concealed her gender and was thus able to exhibit to a wider audience. The painting shown could depict a landscape in Scotland or California, and is captivating because of Fortune's interplay of harmoniously coordinated colors.
