Oskar Hagemann, Still Life with Flowers - Oil Painting

1920 - 1940

Sold by Brave Fine Art

Description

This attractive mid-20th-century oil painting by German artist Oskar Hagemann (1888-1985) depicts a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a jug.

With an impressionistic touch, Hagemann has captured the delicacy of these blooms with spirit. It’s a quiet ensemble, pared back and refined with an emphasis on the gentle harmony of pastel colours. He lived a remarkable life - marrying another artist and residing for a while at a castle in Sommerau, Germany. This is a rare find as his still lifes tend to be less common than his portraits.

Signed lower left and held within an ornate gilt frame.

Medium: Oil on canvas

Overall size: 25½” x 29½” / 65cm x 75cm

Year of creation: c. 1940
