A luminous Autumn oil on canvas board landscape, probably of the hills in the Hudson River Valley, by the noted American artist William Louis Sonntag (1822-1900). Signed in the lower right. Sonntag was born near Pittsburgh, PA and moved to Cincinnati, OH in the 1840’s to study art. He studied for a brief time with G. Frankenstein at the Cincinnati Academy of Fine Art and his idealized paintings of American wilderness and visionary paintings of imagined European ruins were commercially successful. He traveled twice to Europe in the 1850’s to improve his skills, eventually settling in New York City. He joined the National Academy of Design, where he exhibited his works for forty years. His mature works identify him with the Hudson River School of landscape painters. A romantic and naturalistic painter of his surroundings, Sonntag also created idealized paintings of Roman ruins, recalling his European trips of earlier years. Sonntag was an Associate (1860) and Academician (1861) at the National Academy of Design, and a member of the American Watercolor Society, Artists Fund Society, and the American Art Union...

Eugène Berman - "Paludia" (1967-1968) Type : Huile sur toile Signature : Monogrammée en bas au centre, contresignée au dos Date de création : 1967-Rome-1968 Dimensions : 67 cm x 54 cm Encadrement : Rare cadre Troubadour en papier mâché, circa 1840 Expositions et provenance : Étiquette d’exposition de la Galerie Lucie Weill au dos Annotations de la Galerie Forni à Bologne Bibliographie : Galerie Lucie Weill, Les Néo-romantiques: Christian Bérard, Léonid et Eugène Berman, Pavel Tchelitchew, Paris, 1971. "Paludia" est une huile sur toile réalisée par Eugène Berman entre 1967 et 1968 à Rome. L'œuvre, représentative de son style néo-romantique, est empreinte de mélancolie et de poésie, avec une touche onirique caractéristique de son approche théâtrale de la composition. Son cadre troubadour en papier mâché, rare et datant de circa 1840, confère à l'œuvre une aura historique et une mise en valeur singulière, dans l'esprit des cabinets de curiosités qu'affectionnait l'artiste. Biographie d'Eugène Berman (1899-1972) : Né le 4 novembre 1899 à Saint-Pétersbourg, Eugène Berman est un peintre et décorateur de théâtre d’origine russe, naturalisé américain. Il est le frère de Léonide Berman. Son éducation artistique débute en Europe occidentale, avec des formations en Allemagne, Suisse et France, où il suit les cours de Pavel Naumov et Sergey Gruzenberg entre 1914 et 1918. Après avoir quitté la Russie en 1918, il étudie à l'Académie Ranson à Paris, sous la direction de Maurice Denis et Édouard Vuillard. Inspiré par Giorgio de Chirico et Picasso, il expose ses œuvres (portraits et paysages) aux Salons d’Automne et des Tuileries entre 1923 et 1927. Il promeut, aux côtés de son frère, une forme de peinture poétique et symboliste. En 1935, il émigre aux États-Unis, où il travaille comme décorateur de théâtre tout en poursuivant son œuvre picturale. Il devient citoyen américain en 1937. Il meurt le 14 décembre 1972, à Rome ou New York. Cabinet de curiosités et collection personnelle : Eugène Berman possédait une importante collection d’objets anciens, comprenant : Céramiques, statuettes, sculptures, verrerie, textiles, tapis de diverses civilisations (précolombienne, africaine, de Nouvelle-Guinée, de Colombie-Britannique, égyptienne, copte, grecque, étrusque, romaine). Mobilier italien et latino-américain du XVIe et XVIIe siècles. Œuvres d’amis artistes, dont Mirko, Ernst, Cagli, Cremoni. Sa collection fut installée dans un appartement romain, transformé en un véritable cabinet de curiosités, situé au dernier étage d’un palais proche de la Piazza del Popolo. ------------ Eugène Berman - "Paludia" (1967-1968) Type: Oil on canvas Signature: Monogrammed at the bottom center, countersigned on the back Creation Date: 1967-Rome-1968 Dimensions: 67 cm x 54 cm Frame: Rare Troubadour-style papier-mâché frame, circa 1840 Exhibitions and Provenance: Exhibition label from Galerie Lucie Weill on the back Annotations from Forni Gallery in Bologna Bibliography: Galerie Lucie Weill, The Neo-Romantics: Christian Bérard, Léonid and Eugène Berman, Pavel Tchelitchew, Paris, 1971. "Paludia" is an oil on canvas created by Eugène Berman between 1967 and 1968 in Rome. Representative of his neo-romantic style, the piece exudes melancholy and poetic introspection, with a dreamlike quality reflecting his theatrical approach to composition. The rare papier-mâché Troubadour frame, dating from circa 1840, enhances the historical aura of the work, aligning with the artist’s deep appreciation for curiosities and antiquities. Biography of Eugène Berman (1899-1972): Born on November 4, 1899, in Saint Petersburg, Eugène Berman was a Russian-born American painter and theater designer. He was the brother of Léonide Berman. He received his early artistic education in Western Europe, training in Germany, Switzerland, and France, with studies under Pavel Naumov and Sergey Gruzenberg between 1914 and 1918. Leaving Russia in 1918, he studied at Académie Ranson in Paris, under the guidance of Maurice Denis and Édouard Vuillard. Influenced by Giorgio de Chirico and Picasso, he exhibited his works (portraits and landscapes) at the Salons d’Automne and des Tuileries between 1923 and 1927. Alongside his brother, he championed a poetic and symbolic form of painting. In 1935, he emigrated to the United States, working as a theater designer while continuing to produce allegorical works. He became an American citizen in 1937. He passed away on December 14, 1972, in Rome or New York.
