About the Item
Large and beautiful cubist oil painting by Danish female artist Ebba Carstensen. Figure composition, c. 1915–25. Indistinctly signed. Oil on canvas.
The work is not titled or dated, but several titles from the artist's early participation at Charlottenborgs Forårsudstilling (The Charlotteborg Spring Exhibition) and Kunstnernes Efterårsudstilling (The Artists' Autumn Exhibition) in Copenhagen could match the motif: “Figurgruppe i Skoven” (Figure group in the forest) (CF 1915), “Skovinteriør” (forest interior) (KE 1916), “Susanne i badet” (Susanne in the bath) ( KE 1917), “Forårsmorgen i skoven” (Spring morning in the forest) (KE 1918) or “Figurer i landskab” (Figures in landscape) (KE 1925).
Ebba Carstensen was one of the most important female artists in the early modernist movement in Danish painting. She first exhibited in 1908 in Charlottenborg. Thereafter her painting was increasingly influenced by modern trends she learned from Danish painters who had returned from Paris. She abandoned Impressionism in favour of the more disciplined style of Cubism, evoking a "return to nature".
“Being an artist is just about the best thing a human being can be. Only a few things can be compared to the feeling you experience when you suddenly master your abilities and can create what you had in mind, and when this does happen once in a while, then you experience something that carries you across all the rigorous working days that fill the life of an artist.”
