3940 - FAURE, Amandus (1874 Hamburg – 1931 Stuttgart)

FAURE, Amandus (1874 Hamburg – 1931 Stuttgart) Constantinople by Night Oil on canvas. Signed lower right. 39 x 57.5 cm. Faure frequently depicts Oriental themes in his works, particularly in genre paintings. A distinctive feature of his work is his nocturnal cityscapes, such as this one, which are characterized above all by their atmospheric lighting. The painting was exhibited at the Württembergischer Kunstverein in Stuttgart (deposit label on the reverse). Slight signs of aging. A painter in Stuttgart and a student of Ludwig Herterich, Leopold von Kalckreuth, and Carlos Grethe, he is—alongside the artists Otto von Faber du Faur and Hermann Pleuer—one of the leading representatives of a new generation of Swabian painters who turned toward Impressionism.
