About the Item
Denes Holesch
Hungarian, 1910-1983
White Horses
Oil on panel
8 by 10 in, w/ frame 11 ⅞ by 13 ¾ in
Signed lower right
Denes Holesch (Denes de Holesch) was born in 1910 in Besztercebanya, Hungary. He entered the Academy of Fine Arts as a Hungarian with a Czechoslovakian passport, since Hungary was divided after the Trianon Treaty in 1920. That frustrating feeling made him try his fortune abroad. He became devoted to freedom, while he was homesick constantly and desperately.
During the fifty years he spent outside Hungary, he lived and worked in fifteen countries. After China and the Philippines he went to Bali. The seven years he spent in Australia proved to be significant both in his career and private life. He met the celebrated pianist, Joyce Greer there, and married her. He longed to go to America, the land of freedom. He did not arrive to surrender but to conquer.
He became a member of the American Portrait Painters' Society and received American citizenship. An Australian critic told him once: 'Denes, you are the Stubbs of the 20th century!'. He was more and more appreciated as an artist, but Europe's call was stronger.
Breaking his vow he made back in 1956, he returned to Hungary in 1983. He could not enjoy his homeland for a long time, as a few months later, on 11th May he died. Holesch's first run came to an end. Wherever he went in the world, he claimed to be a Hungarian painter. His death pushed him back to unfamiliarity.
As a result of the devoted work by his family members and Hungarian art lovers, he has become a recognized, popular painter in his homeland Hungary. Although his paintings appear regularly in international auctions, a tremendous proportion of his art heritage was discovered in the world and brought to Hungary for his Centenary Exhibition in 2010.

Was a Russian-born Impressionist. Born in Moscow on January 20, 1871 to a merchant family he studied painting and drawing. Tarkhoff was known as the “Moscow Parisian,” because he spent so much of his life in France -- from 1898 until his death in 1930. A member of the World of Art and the Union of Russian Artists, Tarkhoff began drawing at the age of twenty-four. After an unsuccessful attempt to enroll at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, he studied under Konstantin Korovin. At the age of twenty-eight, Tarkhoff made his first visit to Paris, where he studied drawing and began actively working and exhibiting. He moved there permanently in 1899.
In 1906, he held a one-man show at the gallery of Ambroise Vollard, the famous Parisian art dealer who championed all the leading French Impressionists. Sergei Makovsky, Alexander Benois...
