EMIL NOLDE

No.22

 >Wildspitz, the bad guy and the pretty little white ball<

Chromolithography 1897

 Signed in print bottom right E.HANSEN = Emil Nolde

with slight signs of wear, rare; ie ORIGINAL CARD printing:. Philipp & Kramer, Vienna

Only the first cards achieved the high circulation, from no. 12 in Austria the circulation was smaller and therefore the price is much higher today.


The watercolors with mountain motifs he created during his teaching career in St. Gallen from 1894 onwards, for which he was inspired by Swiss legends and fairy tales, represent the beginning of Emil Nolde's work. They vividly document his tendency towards the grotesque, towards faces and masks, towards the enigmatic. At that time, Nolde still signed with his birth name, Emil Hansen. In 1897 Nolde decided to print some of the watercolors as postcards. The first circulation of 100,000 cards was within of ten days sold. More postcard prints followed. With the proceeds, Nolde was finally able to become self-employed as an artist

Original mountain postcard from 1897, well preserved, only slight signs of wear, minimally bumped at the edges, multiple, KPK, sheet size approx. 9x14cm, with frame approx. 34x34cm

Square wooden frame with bevel cut passepartout and glass. NEW!

Square black frame also possible

NO REPRINT

Also a great gift, especially for Nolde lovers !
