PROVENANCE Stockholms Auktionsverk, Stora Kvalitén, autumn 1997, catalog no. 1097 EXHIBITED Hanna and Georg Pauli, Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde, Stockholm 1997, catalog no. 207 Georg Pauli represents a multifaceted and innovative artistry. His curiosity reflects his entire production, he was always open to new ideas and currents. Together with his wife Hanna, Georg Pauli was a central part of Swedish art life during the decades around the turn of the century. They belonged to the crowd of enthusiasts who raved about a renewal of contemporary art.

In November 1885, Georg Pauli and Hanna Hirsch met. They got engaged the following year, joined the newly founded Artists' Union and traveled to Barbizon. In 1887 the couple married and moved to Italy where they stayed in Rome for a year before returning to their homeland in the spring of 1888. They moved into Fjällgatan 11 and the following year the couple's first child was born.

During the years on Fjällgatan, Georg Pauli was inspired by the incomparable view of the Swedish capital. He had for many years moved freely between different places on the continent but now landed in one of the most beautiful places in the world. The breathtaking view, and the love for the new hometown, now became clear in his painting. In 1889 he showed, among other things, Stockholm in winter twilight at the World Exhibition in Paris.

It is also this year that he paints the auction's painting - a moonlit twilight landscape over Stockholm's inlet with the moonlit street lighting the way for the sailboats.

The highlight of the Swedish classic department is Carl Larsson’s Garden Scene from Marstrand. The painting is Swedish summer personified and an exquisite example of Larsson’s watercolour painting at its best. Several other en plein air painters from the late 19th Century are represented, such as Bruno Liljefors, Frits Thaulow and Per Ekström. The latter’s atmospheric painting Summer landscape, Chantilly, allows the viewer to get up close to nature. The auction also includes a unique collection of works by the animal sculptor Arvid Knöppel, which show his versatility and skillfulness as a sculptor and illustrator. The notable artist Axel Törneman is also represented with a larger collection of works. The painting Archer, depicting his son Algot, is perhaps the auction’s most colourful masterpiece.

The international department presents works by artists such as Emelie Preyer and the French symbolist Henri Martin alongside the artist Bartholomeus Sprangers, who was one of the first artists to immerse himself in the 16th Century Mannerism, which can be seen in the auction’s beautiful work Allegory of the Goddess of Victory. The Old Master department also features a portrait depicting Count and Major General Leonard Johan Wittenberg by David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl, executed in 1677, only three years after Stockholms Auktionsverk was founded in 1674!
