Watercolor painting "Girl at the balustrade" by Marga Goove-Marcovic. Germany
Located in Köln, NW
"Girl at the balustrade" by Marga Groove-Marcovic. (1920-2002) Germany.
Original watercolor painting with white opaque paint. Framed with Passepartout behind glass.
Marga Groove-Marcovic was a very versatile artist. The illustrated german exhibition catalog contains information about her artistic career and education.
She was a student of Zoltan Székessy, a german-hungarian sculptor at the "Düsseldorf Academy of Art".
Groove-Marcovic created sculptures, paintings, drawings, watercolors and collages.
Children were a favorite motif for her.
Although this painting is not dated, it could be conditionally considered to the fifties / sixties, since according to the catalog, the artist mainly created watercolors during this period.
The friendly, strong and bright colors stand in stark contrast to the dark and empty eyes of the girl.
Perhaps due to the children´s traumatic war experiences ?
The dimensions given refer to the picture with frame...

Study for decorative panel
Pencil and watercolor on paper mounted on paperboard
Measures: 62.5 x 74 x 5 cm (with frame)
50.5 x 62 (without the frame)
Signed in the circle lower right
Born near Glasgow in Scotland, Walter Shirlaw settled with his family in New York in 1841, when he was two or three years old. As a young boy, he took night classes at the National Academy of Design, and first exhibited his work there in 1861. The first years of his career were spent as an engraver at the American Bank-Note Company, while at the same time attempting to establish himself as a painter.
He later moved to Chicago, where he continued to work as an banknote engraver and also taught art at the Chicago Academy of Design. In 1870, at the relatively late age of thirty-two, Shirlaw travelled to Europe to study. Prevented from settling in Paris by the Franco-Prussian War, he instead studied in Munich, where he joined the small group of American painters working in the city, including Frank Duveneck and William Merrit Chase...
