About the Item

Georg August Stahl – Composition (1962–63) A striking abstract painting by Georg August Stahl, executed in oil on masonite. Signed on the front by the artist, with a label on the verso detailing the title, date, and medium. Medium: Oil on masonite Dimensions: 27" W × 25" H × 2.5" D (framed) About the Artist Georg August Stahl (b. Kassel, Germany) was a German painter and graphic artist known for his abstract compositions and calligraphic sketches. His early training emphasized drawing and watercolor, later mastering woodcuts at Kassel's Academy of Fine Arts, a key medium in 1920s German Expressionism. Career Highlights Emigrated to the Netherlands in 1930, joining avant-garde circles like R33 in Rotterdam. Hid during WWII to escape persecution, later conscripted, deserted in 1944, and became a POW in England, where he painted and studied. Returned to the Netherlands post-war, creating monumental abstract works and delicate sketches on Japanese paper. Exhibited widely, including a 1962 retrospective in Kassel. Artistic Style & Legacy Stahl's work is often compared to Willi Baumeister, Fritz Winter, and Ernst Wilhelm Nay, blending abstraction with refined, calligraphic detail. His works are held in major collections, including the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Hessen (Kassel) and the Koehnline Museum of Art.
