Bruno Héroux
Rosenlaube - Etching by Bruno Héroux - 1909

1909

About the Item

Rosenlaube is an amazing black and white etching on paper, realized in 1909 by the German painter, Bruno Héroux (Leipzig, 1868-1944). Signature and Title in pencil on lower left margin, a little signature etched on plate in capital letter on lower right margin. This wonderful original print representing an enchanted garden in which a man is playing the violin, executing a Brahm's lied for to his woman, curled up on his feet in an extremely intimate and romantic attitude, is from the series "Vae Solis". Under the image engraved, musical notes from a Brahm's Lied, a remarque of the musician portrait, and a drypoint etching representing a circle of children. Beautiful impression, in excellent condition, with a usual yellowing of paper and some minor and imperceptible stains on margins. A breathtaking modern artwork with symbolistic influences, with an artist debt of Max Klinger, only for sensible souls would have at home a romantic corner of meditation and would lose in beauty. Reference: Liebsch, n. 326 Louis Carl Bruno Héroux (Leipzig, 1868-1944) The German painter from a Huguenot family and son of engraver, Bruno Héroux, follows the teachings of the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst (HGB) in Leipzig where he excels in xylography very quickly. From 1900 to 1910, he exhibited his paintings and engravings at the Salon of French Artists in Paris and obtained the Honorable Mention in 1906. His style, close to symbolism, evolved to the Jugendstil, and was praised by an artist like Max Klinger. He was soon at the center of the Leipzig School (Leipziger Künstlervereins) and some of his drawings were used to decorate buildings in Leipzig. He is the author of several hundred original engravings (some of which, erotic, are now very popular), and illustrated a large number of books.

  • Portrait de Jeune Fille Portrait of a Girl 1970 original aquatint Leonor Fini
    By Leonor Fini
    Located in Paonia, CO
    Portrait 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...
