About the Item
Signed lower right, "Hagedorn-Olsen" for Theodor Hagedorn-Olsen (Danish, 1902-1996) and painted in 1989. Formerly in the collection of the Johannes Larsen Museum, Norway (label verso).
A substantial Post-Impressionist oil showing an expansive view of the Grand Canal beneath a clouded blue sky with a gondola passing beneath the Rialto Bridge and bright sunshine reflecting off distant buildings. A scintillating late work by this Danish master.
Theodor Hagedorn-Olsen first studied in Copenhagen with Carl Thorpe (1923-24) and, subsequently, with Othon Friesz in Paris (1924-25). He furthered his art studies in Arles at the time Monet was completing his series of water-lilies before returning to Copenhagen where he attended the Royal Danish Academy for a further three years (1926-29). He later continued his travels and education on extended painting trips to Spain and Italy. An early European exponent of Modernist color theory, Hagedorn-Olsen is known particularly for his monumental and sculpturally-derived figural works, dramatically composed and executed in a palette of saturated, complementary colors. Hagedorn-Olsen is well-listed in art biographical dictionaries, including Benezit and Weilbach, and his work may be found in the permanent collections of numerous public museums.

- 'Italian Piazza with the Alps Beyond', Paris, Danish Royal Academy, Oslo MuseumLocated in Santa Cruz, CASigned lower right, 'K. L. Hilkier' for Knud Ove Hilkier (Danish, 1884-1953) and painted circa 1950 A lyrical Expressionist oil showing women fetching water from a fountain in the sunny piazza of a northern Italian town, with a view beyond towards the Alps rising in the distance. A powerful and vibrant work by this prominent member of the Bornholm School. Born in Copenhagen, Knud Hilkier first studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen (1901-7). He was the recipient of numerous prestigious scholarships including the Hielmstierne-Rosencrone (1913); Raben-Levetzau (1914 and 1919); the Ronge Award (1915) and the Akkadian Scholarship (1916) which allowed him to further his studies in Spain and Italy and, most importantly, to make frequent visits to Paris. In Paris, he was influenced by the prevailing Impressionist style which caused his palette to lighten and his brushwork to become looser and more expressive. His subsequent studies with Sigurd Swane...Category
