About the Item
Photogravure was a favorite medium of this artist and its soft, dreamy quality lends itself to us feeling this is a snapshot back in time to another era. As we see in Sailing Boats, Kuhn was one of the finest photographers of the Secessionist and Pictorialist movement. He had an ability to take very intimate subjects, whether they were landscape or figurative, and imbue them with timeless modernity and statement.
The photogravure itself measures 7 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches.
In the latter part of his career his focus shifted to a more intimate domestic scale, often depicting still lifes, landscapes, or members of his family resting or playing around their home in Innsbruck, including our Sailing Boats. With it’s hazy rendering, Edeltrude and Walter focus on the launching of a toy boat.
