Ludwig Gschosmann (1894 - 1988) / Marthe Guillain / Arthur Haegebaert (1876 - 1942)




This German painter made a lot of paintings around the 
Tegernsee which is south of Munich. The depictings are
often choosen in a romantic mood but the way he worked
was more impressionistic and even with a palet knife.


The subtle color nuances are making this a lively
work where a lot can be discovered. Therefore I've
added some detailed photo's.


Nature in all its' flourishing moods can be seen here
almost in the way the romantic painters use to do.


From this point Gschossmann made several works.


This work is a oil on canvas: Dimensions 60 / 80 cm.
It had no frame when we bought it but having a more
modern approach we figured the frame had to be more
"recent'  as well.


Marthe Guillain





A kind of a sketch in a nice fluid style Marthe Guillain is
known for. Oil on canvas / wood. Dimensions: 25 / 26 cm.


Presented here is a detail of this oil painting.


Encadrement but not for everyone. The color blue
is coming back but this one is typical for the fifties
of the past century.


Due to the cleaning process the signature fainted a bit
but some typical features in her signature in fact always
are there. Probably signed after some time this work
was finished.




Arthur Haegebaert  ( 1876 - 1942 )






Arthur Haegebaert learned at the Academies of Brugge, Antwerpen 
and Brussel.  He had a friendship with James Ensor, Constant Permeke 
and Isidoor Opsomer. From 1914 until 1921 he stayed in the Netherlands 
and lived in Middelburg. He did a lot of city views there as well as dune- 
and landscapes of Walcheren. He painted in an impressionistic style in 
colors that are fresh to these days. Work on board. Dimensions: 30 / 49 cm



And of course a close up from his
signature on this painting


The second picture of the signature also is showing
a part of the frame that confirms our supposition
that our painting has to be from the same period as
the painting shown here. Most likely both paintings
received their (original) frame in Belgium.


A still life with Orchids, a subject tis painter is not
known for. But beautifully executed anyway!
Oil on canvas: 50 / 70 cm.


And his signature of course. We think this to be a later
work as this work is in a remarkable good condition!
