VÁCLAV BŘEZINA (CZECH / BOHEMIAN 1862 - 1906) - Autumn Avenue with a Horse-Drawn Carriage (Large Format) *** DESCRIPTION OF THE LOT: *** Date: dated 1899 Technique: oil on canvas Dimensions: 100 × 120 cm Signature: bottom right Framed: framed Note: exhibition label on the reverse (probably Krasoumná jednota / Fine Arts Union) Lot information: An extraordinary, gallery-sized and large-format work (100 × 120 cm) representing the pinnacle of Václav Březina's work, one of the most important students of Mařák's landscape school. The monumental composition is dominated by massive trunks and dense crowns of trees shrouded in radiant, golden ochre and brownish autumn tones. A horse-drawn carriage with a covered wagon and a cart arrives through an alley lined with fallen leaves. Here, Březina demonstrates a masterful capture of diffuse autumn light, a misty haze in the depths of the alley, and the plastic structure of the foliage on a generous scale. __________________________________________________________________________ Bidders are obliged to inform themselves about the condition of the lots before the auction, subsequent complaints will not be taken into account.
