Eduard Bargheer (1901 - 1979) was an artist who was represented in many exhibitions in the 1950s, including internationally. He took part in the Venice Biennale in 1948 and the documenta in Kassel in 1955 and 1959. After the Second World War, his work led from an expressionist early work influenced by Edvard Munch to an abstract formal language. For him, abstraction meant translating a visual experience into a two-dimensional, symbolic representation, abandoning the illusion of spatial perspective, concentrating on the essential and elementary and making the hidden architectural structures of the motif visible. The resulting formal network of relationships was described by the artist himself as "fabric". If the expressionist approach of the early work meant a transformation of the object, in the creative phase of the post-war period one could rather speak of transfiguration, of a symbolic representation of reality. Another characteristic of this phase is the harmony of color and light that he strived for in his paintings, which he found exemplary in Paul Klee's watercolours from his trip to Tunis in 1914.
Non-representational directions ("abstract art") prevailed after the war as a sign of liberation, western orientation and supposed progressiveness. Bargheer's works were also occasionally classified as "abstract" at the time. This is incorrect and probably due to the fact that the fundamental difference between the approaches "representational" and "non-representational" and between "abstracting" and "abstract" was blurred. It would perhaps be better if non-representational art were also called this and the term "abstraction" were avoided as a generic term for both approaches or at least only used with regard to the abstracting method. Abstraction is from something and to something. In any case, Bargheer's works remained related to the visual experience of reality. He attempted to find an adequate pictorial response to this, which for him was only possible in symbolic form. This also distinguishes him from the playful, creative directions of free figuration, which, after the dance of death of styles and the abandonment of the fetish of innovation and progress, were revalued in our time, but led to an unmanageable fair of arbitrariness.
Bargheer was an exceptional artist whose work does not really fit into any of the usual categories. With artists like him, the landscape and human depiction of classical modernism found a continuation. Although he took careful note of the tendencies towards deconstruction that became dominant in the second half of the twentieth century, he was not interested in them in relation to his artistic work. In contrast, he certainly anticipated some of the ideas of postmodernism.

Painting “Girl in front of a farmstead in the snow”, oil on canvas, signed on the canvas lower right “HA Brendekilde”, dimensions with frame 61.5 cm in height and 74 cm in width.
An exchange of letters from 1941 between a former owner of the painting and the artist has been preserved, in which she inquires with Brendekilde about the depicted farmstead and its location.

Brendekilde grew up in poor circumstances and began training as a carpenter and stonemason at the age of 14. After a preparatory course of several months in 1877 for the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts under Oluf August Hermannsen to become a flower painter, he began studying sculpture and later painting at the academy. In 1882 - one year after graduating - he made his debut at the Charlottenborg Autumn Exhibition. Born Hans Andersen, the painter changed his surname to the place name of his native village in 1884 to avoid any confusion with the distantly related Danish poet Hans Christian Andersen. From 1885 to 1907, Brendekilde worked in the pottery of Hermann A. Kähler, producing ceramic and glass sculptures. Although he had been carving picture frames since childhood, it was not until 1888 that he used his own frames for his paintings. Between 1889 and 1890, he embarked on an academy-sponsored study trip to Germany, France, Italy, Egypt, Syria and the Netherlands. A little later, in 1894 - 1895, he traveled to Germany and Italy again. From 1901 to 1904 he worked for the Fyens Glasværk. His last study trips took him to Italy between 1908 - 1909 and 1922 - 1923.
From 1883, he regularly visited the Raagelund art colony, where he met H. P. Carlsen, Søren Lund and Julius Paulsen. From 1903, Brendekilde worked at Holckenhus - a studio association - where he worked together with Peter Severin as well as Marie Krøyer...
