About the Item
Expressionist mystical portrait of purple veiled and masked women is painted in intense and non-naturalistic colors blue, green and red. She is holding a yellow card in one hand and fan in the other. Oil painting on canvas made in 1946 by Czech artist Franz Cižek (signed) born in Leitmeritz 1863-Vienna 1946. This was one of his last paintings. The brushwork is free and paint application is in generous strikes
The painting is well placed in a white wooden frame. There are s few tiny flakes of paint chipped off the canvas which can be professionally restored on request.
While a student, Franz lived at a family with children. He allowed them to use his art supplies and encouraged them to express themselves. He was impressed by their creativity, and showed the work to fellow artists at the university, who encouraged him to start an art school for children. The Juvenile Art Classes were free of charge to children of Vienna. His teaching encouraged imagination and free expression.
Among those Cižek influenced was Swiss painter and Bauhaus leader Johannes Itten, well known for his theory of color.

Painting by Bela Kadar
Bela Kadar was born in Hungary in 1877. Amongst his early interests was mural painting. Like many of the artists of his day he was drawn to Paris and Berlin, and by 1910 he had visited both cities twice. In 1923, Kadar showed his paintings in Berlin at the invitation of Herwarth Walden. Walden was an important figure in the German avant-garde, being the publisher of the journal Der Sturm which featured the works of Franz Marc, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Marc Chagall and Oskar Kokoschka.
