Rene Marie Dujardin / Joop van Egmond / Elisabeth von Eicken / Elf







René Marie Dujardin made this one in Greece.
Though not that big it has the power of
summer in the mediteranian countries.
Work on paper. Dimensions: 20 / 30 cm.


We think this to be an earlier work as Rene Marie Dujardin
later in his lifetime used brighter colors and had a more
impressionistic approach. We simply loved the play of
his lines in this scenery that depicts Kwaremont - Belgium.
Work on paper. Dimensions:  33 / 48 cm.


In fact this work is a mixed technique work as Dujardin
also used ink to set out the scenery.



Joop van Egmond




Watercolour made in Holland at a place which
entirely has disappeared. This environement
has been built on lately and someone living there
bought this landscape. Work on paper.
Dimensions: 30 /40 cm.



Eisabeth von Eicken (1862 - 1940)




One of the more renowned painters in Germany.
Besides beautiful oil on canvas landscapes (e.g. winters)
she made several watercolors as well. Birch trees often
were her favorites. She did some immaculate works
in the Alfred Sisley style whom she admired a lot.
This picture has never been taken out of its' frame
I'm planning to replace the back and place a piece of 
acid-free paper behind this watercolor to prevent any 
damage in the near future and to be able to make 
better pictures of course.



Here her signature which is immediately recognizable. 
Elisabeth von Eicken participated in the Ahrenshoop Art
collective situated near the Baltic sea and her workshop 
now is a beautiful  residence where art still plays an 
important role. Work on paper. Dimensions: 38 / 57 cm.


Elf



Dated in the twentieths of the past century when
Art Deco was hot. Probably made for an illustration
or decoration we simply do not know. The skills of
the artist are obvious. Work on paper. 18 / 25 cm.


A sort of a signature but dated anyway.
