Description

Eugen Dücker, "Heidemoor" Flat moorland landscape under a cloudy sky, strongly impastoed, with a broad brushstroke, especially in the area of the sky, partly executed in spatula technique, oil study on painting cardboard with partial exposure of the painting ground, in the present study Dücker provides the viewer with a direct access to nature in colour and perspective, In this study, Dücker provides the viewer with a direct, unobstructed approach to nature in terms of colour and perspective, with which Dücker was to become "downright epoch-making" (Thieme-Becker) for the Düsseldorf school of landscape painting; Dücker was influential with this sober-realistic approach because he thus replaced the romantic style of the Achenbach brothers, as the Düsseldorf painter Friedrich Schaarschmidt remarked at the time: "As if with a single stroke, the traditional woodland style disappeared from the academ. The traditional forest and meadow pictures, as they had always been painted as an old legacy with the application of a great deal of humour, disappeared from the academic studios as if with a stroke.", signed "E. DÜCKER" at the bottom left, label on the reverse: "Große Düsseldorfer Kunstausstellung in Köln//Verein 1904//E. Dücker: Heidemoor//Sale price and insurance value 1850 Goldmark", the catalogue for the 1904 International Düsseldorf Art Exhibition paid tribute to Dücker in a way that illustrated his importance: "Among the landscape painters, Eugéne Dücker and his school stood in the foreground as always.", quoted from Hermann Board, Die Internationale Kunstausstellung, p. 173, also with two modern adhesive labels "Lennartz" on the reverse, extensive retouching, very attractively framed in bronzed moulding, folded dimensions approx. 44 x 62 cm. Artist information: also Eugène Gustav, German landscape painter and etcher (1841 Arensburg to 1916 Düsseldorf), 1858 to 1863 attended the Imperial Academy of Arts St. Petersburg, travelled to Germany, France, Belgium, Holland and Italy, settled permanently in Düsseldorf, where he became a professor in the landscape class in 1872, replacing the romantic Düsseldorf landscape style of the Achenbach brothers with his sober and realistic approach, his numerous pupils included Max Clarenbach, he was represented in the major galleries of Berlin, Düsseldorf, Bonn, Breslau, Dresden, Hanover, Königsberg, Budapest, St. Petersburg, Moscow and Riga. Petersburg, St Petersburg, Moscow and Riga, he was already sought after in contemporary collectors' circles for his maritime motifs; Dücker focussed on beach landscapes, particularly of the North and Baltic Seas, Source: Thieme-Becker, Vollmer and Internet.
