About the Item
Fine expressionist painting by noted Swiss Modernist and Expressionist Oskar Luthy. Luthy is an important Swiss painter from the period between the First and Second World Wars. He is known primarily as a painter of still life pieces. He founded 'Der Moderne Bund,' a group of Swiss Modernists who were known for their expressionist works. In 1933, Luthy's paintings were seized by Nazis as 'Degenerate Art'. The painting here is an exceptionally large example - it is primarily thickly impastoed oil paint, but with a single page of latin script, over which the butterfly is painted. The painting is signed O Luthy and dated '33 at the lower left. The painting is in very good untouched condition. The frame is worn, but presentable.
