      Hans Escher, Chalk Lithograph, ‘Bartrinker‘, Austria, 1956

      Est: €320 - €400

      Chalk lithograph on vellum Vienna, Austria, 1956 Hans Escher (1918-1993) – Austrian painter, graphic artist and illustrator Numbered and signed in pencil lower right ‘9/12 H. Escher‘ Dated in the stone lower left ‘10.1956‘ Verso with address stamp of the artist Framed under mat Overall dimensions, with passe-partout: 65.3 x 50 cm Very good condition The present chalk lithograph by Hans Escher (1918-1993) was executed in October 1956 and depicts a drinker sitting at a bar table and presumably accompanied by the hostess. The scenery appears almost sketchy as if the artist wanted to give a short impression of a worker’s life. The chalk lithograph on vellum is in very good condition considering its age. It is numbered and signed in pencil lower right ‘9/12 H. Escher‘ as well as dated in the stone lower left ‘10.1956‘. The work is framed under an original mat. The back side shows the artist’s atelier stamp as well as some further inscriptions such as the hand-written title ‘Bartrinker’. The overall matted dimensions are 65.3 x 50 cm. The size of the displayed image is 38 x 30 cm. Hans Escher (1919 – 1993) From 1935 onwards Hans Escher studied at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Ch. Guérin. After his return to Vienna in 1946, he completed his print studies at the ‘Hochschule für Angewandte Kunst’ in Vienna. Since 1965, he was a member of the Vienna Secession. Escher is foremostly known as a printmaker and completed several cycles in this medium (e.g. Sacco di Roma, ten images to the book of Hiob). His themes reach from the portrayal of single people in solitude, to satires and to realistic images of urban life. Later he engaged himself with still life painting, which he often combined with complex topics. (cbo) Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.

      Etching with cityscape of Florence by Hans Escher, 1972

      Est: €80 - €100

      Etching Hans Escher (1918 - 1993) - Austrian painter, printmaker and illustrator Signed in pencil lower right "H. Escher" Numbered in pencil lower left "3/40" Dated lower left in the plate "12.1972" Works by Hans Escher fetch up to 700 Euros in international auctions Viennese Private Collection Overall dimensions: 66 x 51 cm (framed), image: 46 x 19 cm   This fine vedute from Florence is in the tradition of great Italian vedute painters B. Piranesi and A. Canaletto. With a lot of feeling for the atmosphere of the city, Escher composes a quiet general view. The houses and palazzo are arranged in a half circle at the bottom of the paper and give way to a view of the sky, which consumes nearly three-quarters of the paper. Escher etched this with a stable hand, every stroke is there where it should be, nothing interrupting the calm composition of the piece. Framed, under glass. Frame with traces of wear - sheet in good condition. Hans Escher (1919 - 1993) From 1935 onwards Hans Escher studied at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Ch. Guérin.

    • Etching "Sacco di Roma III" by Hans Escher, 1965

      Etching "Sacco di Roma III" by Hans Escher, 1965

      Est: €80 - €100

      Etching Signed in pencil lower right "H. Escher" Hans Escher (1918 - 1993) - Austrian painter, printmaker and illustrator Titled in pencil lower middle "Sacco di Roma III" and numbered lower left "4/30" Dated lower left in the plate "1965" Works by Hans Escher fetch up to 700 Euros in international auctions Viennese Private Collection Overall dimensions: 50 x 41 cm (framed), 29 x 30 cm (plate) This powerful etching by Hans Escher delineates the looting of Rome by German and Spanish mercenaries in May 1527 - known today by its Italian name "Sacco di Roma". The looting represents a completely new form of war-violence through mercenaries, who only went to war for money and booty, and whose military conduct was hard to control. About 30.000 people died in the raid, they represented half the population. In art history the "Sacco di Roma" was repeatedly a motif and Hans Escher, too, often depicted this subject matter. In this portrayal Escher shows, in the foreground, a man lying on his back on the ground. A mercenary is taking a huge step over him with his right hand in a fist. The left leg is stretched forward in the direction of the background, while his right leg is pushing off the man's chin who is lying on the ground. His head is cut off by the top edge. In the background one can detect Rome's population, men, women and children fleeing with all they can. The fine figures do not look like they have a chance against the powerful hulk is coming towards them. Here, too, Escher is yet again able to depict an overall view frighteningly and life-like through few lines and an impressive composition. Framed, under glass. Frame with traces of wear - sheet in very good condition. Hans Escher (1919 - 1993) From 1935 onwards Hans Escher studied at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Ch. Guérin.
