ca. 1900

About the Item

Oil study by a lake and mountains during sunset by Edward Rosenberg (1858-1934). This is a an oil study for a larger painting that Rosenberg did. A tergo is written "E. Rosenberg" and " Study for his ...... landscape....." On the beach are two small boats laying upside down. Oil on canvas laid down on cardboard. The sun has just set behind the mountains. Not signed. This oil study by Edward Rosenberg (1858–1934) captures a tranquil lakeside scene at sunset, framed by distant mountains. The sun has just disappeared behind the mountains, casting a warm afterglow across the sky and reflecting subtly on the water's surface. Two small boats lie overturned on the beach, suggesting a moment of quiet repose. Executed in oil on canvas laid down on cardboard, the work is unsigned but bears an inscription on the reverse: "E. Rosenberg", possibly by the artist, and "Study for ..... landscape...," This study is most likely a preparatory work for a larger painting by Rosenberg. Edward Rosenberg, also known as Edvard Axel Rosenberg, was a Swedish painter born in Stockholm in 1858. He studied at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts from 1879 to 1882, earning the Royal Medal in 1882. Rosenberg's paintings often depict the unique Scandinavian light conditions, particularly during the extremities of the day when the sun casts vibrant hues across the landscape. His focus on atmospheric light and serene natural settings has cemented his place as a distinguished interpreter of Swedish nature. Rosenberg's paintings have been exhibited internationally. After his studies at Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts in 1882 he spent two years in France, further honing his artistic skills. He participated in the Paris Salon multiple times after 1883, receiving an honorable mention in 1886. His work "Marskväll" (Mars Evening) was showcased in Munich in 1901, marking his greatest international success. Rosenberg's art is represented in several museums, including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm and the Norrköping Art Museum.​ This oil study exemplifies Rosenberg's mastery in capturing the subtle interplay of light and landscape, offering insight into his process and the serene beauty of Swedish nature that he so eloquently portrayed throughout his career.​

Located in Stockholm, SE
A fine landscape with horses resting by some trees and some farmers working the soil by Frants Peter Diderik Henningsen (1850 - 1908). Oil on canvas. Signed with monogram "FH" and dated 1898. Henningsen was a Danish painter and draftsman. In 1870, he was admitted to C. V. Nielsen's drawing school and then the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, from which he received his graduation certificate in 1875. As early as 1874, he exhibited his first work, a portrait of actress Julie Sødring, and he was subsequently represented at almost all Spring Exhibitions. He exhibited at Charlottenborg between 1875-1905 and also did exhibitions in Stockholm, Berlin and Paris. He showed great skill in many different areas, e.g. portrait painting, animal painting, landscape painting, genre painting and illustrations. Immediately after the academy, he traveled with academy scholarships to Germany, later to France in 1877-1878, where he applied to Léon Bonnat's school in Paris, and from where in the spring of 1878 he made a trip to Spain together with P.S. Krøyer, Frans Schwartz...

Friends (Just the Guys)
By Nicholas Berger
Located in Greenwich, CT
American, b. 1949 In his more than three decades as an artist, Nicholas Berger (b. 1949) has created an outstanding body of work that continues to evolve and excite viewers. Best known for his industrial, waterfront scenes of New York between 1930-1970, Berger effortlessly captures a period when the technology and landscape of the city was rapidly changing. Although he paints scenes of a bygone era, Berger draws inspiration from the waterfronts near his home in New York’s Hudson River Highlands as well as historical sources in museums. Berger holds BFA and MFA degrees from Alfred University. Earlier in his career, the artist painted representational landscapes rendered in watercolor, a medium in which he achieved great success, sharing a sellout two-person show in Tokyo with Andrew Wyeth. In the mid-2000s, Berger transitioned to his signature industrial scenes of the city, employing oil on panel in a painterly manner influenced by the Hudson River and Brandywine schools...
