JULIUS PAULSEN (Denmark, 1860-1940). "Female nude". Oil on canvas. Signed with initials. In good general condition according to the age.
Est: €2,200 - €2,400
JULIUS PAULSEN (Denmark, 1860-1940). "Female nude". Oil on canvas. Signed with initials. In good general condition according to the age. Measurements: 52 x 38,5 cm; 66 x 53 cm (with frame). This female nude reflects the intimate sensibility of Scandinavian painting of the end of the century. The figure, collected on herself, transmits an atmosphere of introspection reinforced by a soft and enveloping light. Paulsen uses a loose and nuanced brushstroke, with a range of warm tones that delicately model the body, diluting the contours in a barely suggested background. The work is situated between late naturalism and a sensibility close to post-impressionism. Trained at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, where he was also a professor, Julius Paulsen was a leading figure in Danish art. Recognized with the Eckersberg Medal and the Thorvaldsen Medal, his work is preserved in institutions such as the Statens Museum for Kunst.

Julius Paulsen. Double portrait of Carl and Ottilia Jacobsen
Est: kr5,400 - kr6,000
Julius Paulsen (1860-1940). Double portrait of Carl and Ottilia Jacobsen. Oil on panel. Unsigned. 24 x 22 (34 x 31) cm.The present work is a preliminary study for a larger double portrait of brewer Carl Jacobsen and his wife Ottilia Jacobsen, née Stegmann, which Julius Paulsen painted in 1896. This work, which today belongs to Designmuseum Danmark, is mentioned and depicted in Grete Zahle's book about Julius Paulsen from 1992. Grete Zahle writes: "The dignified married couple, who in 1896 were 54 and 42 years old, are facing the viewer head-on (...) They express everything we know they stand for, civic virtue and charity (...) Seen objectively, the two people are not beautiful: large, heavy faces, face the entering viewer. The lack of beauty is compensated to some extent by a faint glow of happiness and togetherness, which is confirmed by the wife placing her right hand on her husband's left arm" (Grete Zahle: 'Julius Paulsen'. Forlaget Rhodes, 1992. Pages 40-42).
