"Day at the Beach, " Nikol Schattenstein, Sunny Seaside Belgian Figurative Scene

About the Item

Nikol Schattenstein (1877 - 1954) Day at the Beach Oil on canvas 27 3/4 x 33 1/2 inches Signed lower left Provenance: Descended in the family of the artist Estate of Howard Aronson Doyle New York, Fine Art, September 28, 2021, Lot 1045 Born in Panemune, which is in present-day Lithuania, Nikol Schattenstein studied at the Academy in Vienna and moved to Berlin in 1906. He was best known for his portrait paintings. Regina Vanderbilt, Raoul Auernheimer and Lev Trotsky were among his sitters. In 1939, Schattenstein immigrated to the United States and exhibited his work in New York galleries such as Duveen-Graham, Schoneman and French & Co. He was, at times, requested to paint portraits of historical founding members and old board members of major companies such as the Insurance Company of North America. He had to recreate time and dress as he painted portraits of people before his time. He showed an ability to capture the feeling of physical presence and liveliness, which was evident in all of his portraits.

  • "Elegant Lady in Winter, Trinity Church, New York" Herman Hyneman, Gilded Age
    By Herman Hyneman
    Located in New York, NY
    Herman N. Hyneman (1849 - 1907) Elegant Lady in Winter, Trinity Church, New York City Oil on canvas 22 x 15 inches Signed lower right Provenance: Freemans, 2005, Lot 76 Herman N. Hyneman was a noted American portrait and figure painter with ties to both Philadelphia and New York. He was born July 27,1849 to Leon and Adeline Hyneman in Philadelphia. ("Who Was Who in American Art" lists his birth date as either 1849 or 1859, but we have confirmed that the birth date is 1849). Virtually nothing is known about his early years, but given the fact that the family resided in a wealthy section of Philadelphia and the fact that he traveled to Paris to study in the studio of Leon Bonnat when he was but 20 years old, it is presumed that the family was financially comfortable if not well to do. Hyneman exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1879 and 1881, which was quite an accomplishment given his tender age. He returned to the United States in 1882 and after a year in Philadelphia, he established a studio at 58 West 57th Street, New York, NY, where he painted portraits to support himself and scenes of beautiful fair-skinned women walking in the snow to exhibit at major exhibitions throughout the United States. Hyneman exhibited at the the Brooklyn Art Association in 1882, 1883 and 1884 and at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in 1883 and 1888. Beginning in 1882 and continuing up until 1905, he exhibited regularly at the National Academy of Design. Despite the fact that he exhibited fourteen paintings at the National Academy over a span of three different decades, he was never elected as a member. In the 1880's his paintings sold for between $100 and $1500, which were substantial sums for that period. Hyneman also exhibited at the Salmagundi Club and the Philadelphia Art Club and was a member of each organization. He won a medal at the American Art Society in 1904 and also exhibited at the Chicago Art Institute. A handwritten label on one of his paintings indicates that he also exhibited in Budapest, Hungary. In 1892, Hyneman married the noted artist Juliet Jolley (aka Jolly), who had previously modeled for him. Thereafter, they shared a studio and on at least one occasion exhibited together. The February 5, 1896 edition of the "New York Times" reported on a "pleasant studio reception" at 58 West 57th Street where the paintings of both Herman and Juliet were shown to members of New York Society including Mr. And Mrs. Edwin Blashfield. At least one of Hyneman's Painting " A Sensation on Wall Street" which depicted a lovely young woman in fur coat with Muff in front of the Stock Exchange, was made into a post card and reproductions of his paintings are known to exist, although not plentiful. At least one etching is known, "Desdemona," which was reproduced in a book by Frederic Stokes. Herman Hyneman...
