Ernest Fiene
Winter Evening Fifth Avenue - New York at Night

1952

About the Item

Ernest Fiene depicts Fifth Avenue looking down from 57th Street with an unobstructed view of the Empire State Building. The absence of newer glass and steel architecture gives the painting the charm of old New York. The artist captures a dark, moody blue sky as light bounces back from the clouds. This contrasts with the somewhat haunting yellow glow given to pedestrians and street traffic. The people have somewhat of a zombie quality akin to George Tooker. Best viewed with a top and direct gallery light to reveal the colors. The painting would benefit with cleaning and new varnish.

    Ernst Link (Swiss, ∗ 14th of October, 1874 in Windisch, † 29th of June, 1935 in Bern) Stöckli with Clothesline • Oil painting on canvas approx. 25.5 x 26.5 cm • Pine frame approx. 34.5 x 35.5 cm (obvious signs of age) • Signed lower right A most pleasant depiction of a typical ‘Stöckli’ in bright sunshine with the a few shirts on the washing line, somewhere in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland. Such small cottages would sit next to the large farmhouses and upon retirement the old couple would move into it, to make room for the next generation to take up residence in the main building and run the farm. The Painting is in pleasingly good and clean condition, with no damage or restoration Ernst Linck was an important representative of the "Berner Schule" (Bernese school) led by the famous Ferdinand Hodler, which also included Traugott Senn, Emil Cardinaux, Eduard Boss...
