SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Hans von Bartels (1856–1913), born in Hamburg and deceased in Munich, devoted part of his work to Dutch coastal communities. From 1887, he returned to their beaches, particularly around Katwijk and the Zuiderzee. His watercolours and gouaches possess an independent value, without being reduced to mere preparatory studies for paintings in oil.
Dutch Fishermen’s Wives Awaiting the Return of the Boats, at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, combines watercolour, gouache and oil on paper. Its visible format, 98 by 79 centimetres, gives particular amplitude to this scene of waiting. Peasant Drinking (1907), at the Lenbachhaus, is instead an oil painting on canvas measuring 34 by 47.5 centimetres, acquired in 1929. The signature connects the painter’s name with Munich and the year in which it was made.
This profile brings together identity references for Hans von Bartels and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
