About the Item

Hans August Lassen (1857–1927) – "Im Atelier des Malers" (1887) Artist: Hans August Lassen Title: Im Atelier des Malers (In the Painter’s Studio) Date: 1887 Medium: Oil on Wood Dimensions: Framed: 38 x 33 cm Artwork: 24 x 18 cm Signature: Signed in the upper left corner Provenance: Includes papers with a description of the painting This exquisite oil painting on wood by the esteemed Hans August Lassen, dated 1887, is a masterful example of 19th-century genre painting, depicting a detailed and lively scene inside an artist's studio. The carefully arranged composition features a group of elegantly dressed figures—possibly art patrons or students—engaging in discussion and admiration of a grand artwork in progress. Lassen’s attention to period costume, atmospheric lighting, and meticulous detail is evident throughout the scene, lending it both historical authenticity and narrative depth. Lassen, known for his interior scenes and meticulously executed historical compositions, often depicted subjects from the artistic and academic worlds. His work reflects influences from Academic Realism and the Romantic tradition, capturing the spirit of the era with rich colors, refined brushwork, and masterful perspective. The painting is encased in a striking ornate period frame, further enhancing its historical significance and visual grandeur. An exceptional piece for collectors of 19th-century European genre paintings, this work is not only a remarkable artistic achievement but also a glimpse into the cultural world of art during Lassen’s time.
