About the Item
Signed lower right, 'Helge' for Helge Jensen (Danish, 1899 - 1986) and painted circa 1925.
This Danish Post-Impressionist first studied with Harald Giersing (1915-1916) before initially working as a porcelain painter. Jensen exhibited widely and with success, first at the annual Artist Exhibition in 1917, where he showed continuously until 1931. In 1932, he exhibited as a guest at the Grønningen and, as a full member of the group, from 1936. Other solo exhibitions included the Art Society, Copenhagen (1935). Jensen also participated in numerous exhibitions outside Denmark, including Germany (1932), Oslo (1935), Budapest (1936), Gothenburg (1939, 1943) and Stockholm (1943). Jensen's works have been exhibited with success internationally including in Madrid, Berlin, Stockholm and the United States.
A frequent visitor to Paris, Jensen also traveled to Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. In 1937, he was awarded the Academy Scholarship which allowed him to travel and study in Italy and, in 1939, the Carlsberg Foundation Scholarship which extended his studies in Italy and also allowed him to study the sources of Classicism in Greece.
Examples of Helge Jensen's painting and ceramics are held in numerous museums including the permanent collection of the Denmark's National Museum of Art in Copenhagen.

- Le carnaval du sage by René MagritteBy René MagritteLocated in New Orleans, LARené Magritte 1898-1967 Belgian Le carnaval du sage (The Sage’s Carnival) Signed “Magritte” (lower right); titled and dated "Le carnaval du sage 1947" (en verso) Oil on canvas The enigmatic paintings of René Magritte have become some of the most familiar and celebrated of the Surrealist movement. Among the most influential of the Surrealist painters of the 20th century, Magritte is an artist of international renown, as beloved for his popular appeal as he is for the psychological intensity of his works. The present oil on canvas, entitled Le carnaval du sage, was executed in 1947 at the height of his career, and it is a tour-de-force example of the haunting, mysterious scenes that comprise his oeuvre. Painted in the years following the Second World War, Le carnaval du sage showcases several recurring themes from Magritte’s oeuvre. Chiefly, a juxtaposition between the visible and the hidden is keenly felt. Throughout his career, Magritte explores the psychological obsession with revealing what is hidden, particularly with regard to the human face. In his Le fils de l’homme, he obscures the face of a man in a bowler hat with an apple, while his Les amants (Metropolitan Museum of Art) conceals the faces of two lovers with white sheets. In Le carnaval du sage, Magritte juxtaposes the blatant nudity of his central figure by masking her face, simultaneously revealing and concealing her from the viewer. The work also incorporates two of Magritte’s most common tropes – the glass of water and the baguette. Lending the scene a strange sense of domesticity, they appear infinitely familiar and distinctly out of place, and thus heighten the uncanny effect of Magritte’s composition. In the background hovers a ghost obscured by a sheet, a figure which was of particular fascination to Magritte beginning in 1946. He once wrote to his fellow Surrealist Paul Nougé: "I saw in a dream an answer to the problem of the ghost: the traditional ghost draped...Category
