About the Item
Der Zeichner is a superb etching made around 1900 by a still unknown author, but surely from the circle of Max Klinger (Leipzig, 1857 - Grossjena, 1920).
Title on plate in the lower margin in the center. Posthumous impression of a matrix by an unknown author.
The style refers to the Griffelkunst and the prescriptions of the Max Klinger "school of stylus"and of the artists who were close to him. In particular, for the subject in question, in the circle of Max Klinger, Saschia Schneider stands out, who placed male nudity at the center of his production and his formal research.
The title, Der Zeichner, recalls that of the Klinger's treaty "Malerei und Zeichnung" and the meanings attached to it, that is, it combines in the figuration and in the poetics the liberating dictates and instances of the so-called reform of life and the neo-Greek cult of the body, also the homoerotic sense, carried out by Saschia Schneider himself and by German magazines such as "Die Schonheit" and "Der Eigene".
Very interesting work, made with an infinite variety of strokes and a wide range of tones from black to white, in excellent condition and in good general preservation, except for minimal marginal tears and some marginal folds.
Sascha Schneider, stage name of Rudolph Karl Alexander Schneider (St. Petersburg, 1870 - Swinemünde, 1927).
The German painter and sculptor enters the world of art when, in 1903 he meets the famous writer Karl May and soon became the illustrator of the covers of his books Winnetou, Old Surehand, Am Rio de la Plata. A year later, in 1904, Schneider was appointed professor at the Großherzoglich-Sächsische Kunstschule Weimar in Weimar. During this period he lived a not happy cohabitation with the painter Hellmuth Jahn, who woul make public the Schneider's homosexuality (at the time punishable under article 175 of the penal code). So he decided to move to Italy, where homosexuality was not considered a crime. Here Schneider met the painter Robert Spies with whom he began a journey in the mountains of the Caucasus chain. He eventually returned to Germany where he stayed for about six months in Leipzig before returning to Italy, settling in Florence. After 1918 he founded the Kraft-Kunst institute for body building, an environment that provided him with many models for his works.

- Portrait de Jeune Fille Portrait of a Girl 1970 original aquatint Leonor FiniBy Leonor FiniLocated in Paonia, COPortrait de Jeune Fille is a haunting portrait of a young girl also known as .. Justine… she could be either fading into the distance or just materializing out of a dream state. Her hair and the air around her is in shades of pale blue and the background is the white of the paper. This is a limited edition ( 170/300) aquatint , signed in the plate. In good condition with a 1" repaired tear midway on the right border which will not show when framed. Argentinian-born artist Leonor Fini (1907-1996) is considered one of the great female artists of the twentieth century. She moved to Paris in the early 1930’s where she spent most of her life and almost immediately formed friendships with Salvador Dali, Cartier- Bresson, Max Ernst and other intellectuals of the time. At twenty five she had her first one person show in Paris and was included in the 1936 pivotal exhibition at MOMA…Fantastic Art, Dada and Surrealism…..and that same year had an exhibition at a famous avant garde gallery in New York. Although Fini never considered herself a Surrealist she maintained close personal relationships with several members of the group. One can see how their ideology influenced her work but she remained firmly rooted in the tradition of Symbolism, Metaphysics and Italian and German Romanticism Her works can be found in most important collections of modern art around the world. Fini was renowned as a portraitist and as a painter of erotic sexual tensions with a mysterious atmosphere. She was adamant about being independent and not belonging to any one group. She lived life on her own terms and is sometimes referred to as …..the female Dali. She was also involved with designing for fashion and creating elaborate sets for opera and theatre. As a feminist she was definitely ahead of the times. She produced the first erotic male nude...Category
