Felix Schlesinger (1833 Hamburg – 1910 Munich) In the Village Store In the realistic and richly detailed interior of a farm store, the little shopper is given an extra treat by the farmer’s wife. Schlesinger depicts his scenes of ordinary people with warmth, realism, and sensitivity. Born into a family of artists in Hamburg, the painter studied at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art and in Paris, among other places, and lived in Frankfurt am Main and Munich, where he successfully exhibited his work. Schlesinger’s graceful paintings of children are particularly sought after, both then and now. Although little is known about his private life, his very finely observed depictions of children suggest that he was a family man himself and that his own children served as models. Oil on wood, parquet-style. Signed lower left; 24 cm x 21 cm. Framed. Oil on panel. Signed.
