About the Item

Frans SCHWARTZ (Copenhagen, 1850 – Valby, 1917) Profile of a Young Girl Mixed media (pastel and oil?) on paper mounted on canvas H. 33 cm; W. 30 cm Monogrammed upper left Frans Schwartz trained at the Royal Academy in Copenhagen between 1866 and 1872, and began exhibiting at the Charlottenborg Salon in 1874. Specializing primarily in religious paintings and large-scale decorations for churches and state buildings, he also produced portraits and nude studies. Highly self-critical of his painting, rather removed from artistic trends and a solitary figure, he nevertheless founded an independent art school, which was intended as a reaction against academic teaching. The end of his career was marked by significant work as a printmaker. Frans Schwartz's sensitive personality is perfectly expressed in this very gentle, half-tone portrait, which also corresponds well to his taste for faces depicted in profile or three-quarter view.
