About the Item
Signed with initials lower left, 'H.V.S.' for Hans Voigt Steffensen (Danish, born 1941) and painted circa 1985. Additionally signed, and titled, 'Charlotte'. verso.
For over fifty years, this notable Danish Expressionist has exhibited widely and with success, at both one-man shows and group exhibitions. Hans Voigt Steffensen's exhibition locations have included the Göteborg Art Hall in Gothenburg, where he has maintained a consistent presence for almost thirty years. Other prestigious exhibition venues have included the Sophienholm in Kongens Lyngby, the Vendsyssel Art Museum and, most recently, at the Galerie Wolfsen in Aalborg in 2015.
Steffensen is best known for his extended series of sensual figural works, often derived from scenes of theater and opera as well as from the passionate worlds of tango and flamenco dance. Since 1976, the artist has maintained a front-row seat at Copenhagen's Royal Theater where he draws the myriad watercolor and gouache sketches through which he has trained his eye to capture character and movement with a few, deft brush-strokes. The artist then returns to his studio to work these studies up into more substantial oil paintings, which he sometimes imagines on a massive scale.
Steffensen also paints loose and lyrical landscapes, both views of his native Denmark as well as views of Venice, Sicily and Brittany and other areas of the world to which he travels in search of inspiration. Many of his travel pictures are also first sketched on location and taken back to Copenhagen to be developed into more substantial works.
We are pleased to offer a powerful figural painting that dates to the artist's middle period.
