Description

Adolf Frey-Moock (1881 Jona/Canton St. Gallen - 1954 Egnach/Canton Thurgau) Odysseus and Calypso In front of an implied landscape blurred in the mystical morning mist, the standing, embracing couple with Calypso as a nude from behind. Painted in predominantly tonal colors, but also with bright color accents, this motif and style-typical painting is one of the Swiss painter's symbolist Art Nouveau paintings that made him famous. Frey-Moock moved to Munich in 1902, where he studied at the academy under Karl Raupp and Wilhelm von Diez from 1904 and became Franz von Stuck's assistant in 1904. In his works, he often depicted lovers, mythological and bacchanalian scenes, strongly influenced by both Stuck and Arnold Böcklin. In 1908 he exhibited for the first time at the Künstlerhaus in Zurich, and from 1909 in the exhibitions of the newly founded "Deutscher Künstlerverband" in Munich, later the Munich artists' association "Die Unabhängigen". Oil/painting cardboard. L. and signed; 29 cm x 44 cm. Frame. Oil on cardboard. Signed.
