"Nude with Bowl of Fruit, " Art Deco Painting in Shades of Purple and Orange
About the Item
Absolutely lovely, almost translucent in its use of color -- as if painted on glass or silk -- this very rare gouache painting was created by William Hentschel, one of the master artists at the famed Rookwood Pottery in Cincinnati. Here he depicts a diaphanous female nude, in tones of blue gray, flanked by a stylized Art Deco flowering plant to one side, and a vivid bowl of grapes, pear and pumpkin to the other. Hentschel mastered this particular form of painting, which involved airbrushing gouache on paper, and this may be the best example we have ever seen. (Dimensions include matte and frame.)

He was a well-known painter, teacher, designer, and craftsperson. He was a designer for the Rookwood Pottery Company, where he worked until 1932 and produced over 4,000 designs for ceramics. He taught at the Art Academy of Cincinnati from 1921–57. Hentschel was one of the leading artists at the famed Rookwood Pottery in Cincinnati for years, before founding the Kenton Hills pottery in 1937. Hentschel died in Burlington, Kentucky, in 1962.
