About the Item
Large antique oil portrait painting of a woman sitting, signed and dated in the lower right corner, Carl V Stetten, Paris 1911. This is a beautiful large scale Art Nouveau atmospheric oil portrait by a re-known and well respected artist, Carl Ernst Von Stetten (find out more below). It's significant, dark and moody and well painted as you would expect. The canvas is slightly textured to the touch, particularly around the raised elements of the bodice. The woman sits bolt upright, her head tilted towards the artist, her expression is calm, self-assured and deliberate. She holds a sheet of music in her hand, perhaps she plays an instrument and wanted to signify this in the portrait. The hues of the pink roses in the vase on her left, perfected reflect the colours of her shawl that she has chosen to wear around her hips and that rests on her legs. It's a perfect composition and would make an excellent, eye catching centre piece.

Signed: CARL V STETTON 1911 -Carl Ernst Von Stetton (see photo) was born on 7 March 1857, in Augsburg, Carl was a member of a wealthy banking family. He was a painter of portraits, scenes with figures, genre scenes, landscapes and urban landscapes. He studied at the Royal Academy of Arts in Munich and later Paris under Jean-Léon Gérôme. He attended the Académie Julian with Gustave Boulanger, Gustave Courtois, Pascal Dagnan-Bouveret and Jules-Joseph Lefebvre. Up until 1913 , he had a studio in Neuilly-sur-Seine. In France, so this portrait was most likely painted there or in that region. He took part in the Salon de Paris in 1889, where he won a medal, and later at the Chicago exhibition in 1893. He was made a Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur. After 1914 , he moved first to Locarno and then back to Munich.
CONDITION: This painting is in overall good condition. However, there are imperfections, such as small losses of paint, particularly around the periphery and old small surface renovations throughout (see photos). At some time in the distant past, it has been re-hung on this stretcher, making it slightly smaller in width than it was in its original form. There are minor scratches just above the chair. Stretcher bar marks visible. It could do with a clean and perhaps the reworking of the old small renovations, or enjoy it in all its perfectly acceptable current authentic state. The painting comes without a frame.
This painting is sent fully insured, track and trace with Colissimo.

- Ibiza woman Spain spanish oil on canvas painting portraitBy Mariano Tur de MontisLocated in Barcelona, BarcelonaFrame size 83x73 cm. Mariano Tur de Montis (Ibiza 1904 -1994). Son of the Ibizan general Don Juan Tur y Palau, of an old patrician family on the island, and of Doña Cristina de Montis and von der Klee. Ibiza painter who felt great admiration for the Spanish classics and the influence of Central European painting of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and especially that of the painter Manuel Benedito. He received multiple praises in his various artistic exhibitions not only in Ibiza, but also in Palma de Mallorca, Mahón, Barcelona, Madrid and in European capitals such as London or Paris. When he was only fifteen, he decided to go to meet Sorolla - when he was painting "The Smugglers" in the vicinity of his family mansion - to find out what opinion he deserved on the first portrait he had made of his mother. A few years later, and undoubtedly encouraged by the praiseworthy response received, he was already successfully overcoming the successive sieves of artistic criticism, until he stood out with the “subtle and aristocratic” style that characterized him, in such relevant competitions as the National Exhibition de Bellas Artes or at the Paris Salon. Delving into his biography it is possible to recognize the main factors that would converge in this rapid and justified progression: the very cultural and artistic environment that surrounded him since his birth. The specific preparation with which his refined mother channeled his innate qualities and marked sensitivity. As well as, and above all, his own need to create beauty. Despite a brilliant degree in Law, he attended the Sant Jordi Academy of Fine Arts in Barcelona, complementing his training in Rome, Florence and Paris. At the early date of 1925, the local press was pleased to transcribe the reviews of his exhibition in the Galerías Layetanas of Barcelona, and in which the acquisition of one of his works "Frivolities" for the Museum of Art took place. Modern of Palermo (Sicily). After participating in 1926 in the Autumn Salon of Palma de Mallorca, together with Narcís Puget Viñas, and in 1929 in the Permanent Exhibition of Levante Art, one of his emblematic satisfactions would arrive: the praises that King Alfonso XIII himself dedicated to the stop before his painting Céfora, a painting in which his sister Guadalupe Tur de Montis was the model, during the National Exhibition of Fine Arts, held in Madrid. Oil that also deserved attention in the prestigious magazine La Esfera, which dedicated the cover of its number 20 of July 5, 1930, or the French magazine La Revue Moderne. In the magazine Arte y Hogar- in its number 56, the Marqués de Lozoya Director General of Fine Arts wrote a nice eulogy of the painter and his work in the photographic report dedicated to the beautiful and elegant Casa de los Tur de Ibiza. It was precisely in 1930, when Tur de Montis began to interact amicably and professionally, with a select group of painters, both Spanish (Pla, Rigoberto Soler, Amadeo Roca and Laureano Barrau...Category
