    Est: €14,000 - €20,000

    Nikolaos Lytras (Greek, 1883-1927) Lady with a rose Oil on canvas, 116 x 74 cm. Frame:123x82 cm Signed upper right. Provenance: Bonhams, The Greek Sale, 18 May 2022, lot 18 Private Collection, Athens Exhibitions: With label from the Panhellenic Art Exhibition of the Greek Artists Association. Bonham's The Greek Sale, 18 May 2022, catalogue notes: Radiating the delicacy and freshness of a newly cut rosebud, this recent find strengthens Lytras's reputation as a true master in building up form with colour and light. The lively tonal juxtapositions of large, simplified surfaces with their syncopated rhythm, as well as the gestural brushwork that amplifies the impression of a first-hand experience, convey a sense of immediacy and presence, while the pair of expressive blue eyes endows the young sitter's face with truthfulness and verve.1 Painterly technique, energetic brushwork, intense luminosity, vibrant form and textured surface support the liberation of properties intrinsic to the artist's medium, asserting the freedom of his pictorial gesture. Around the time he painted this portrait, Lytras co-founded the legendary 'Omas Techni,' an anti-academic art group, which infused the forces of renewal in Greek painting with a fresh and vital impetus and had a major impact on the 1930s generation. As noted by Athens National Gallery Director M. Lambraki-Plaka, "Nikolaos Lytras was a painter committed to the truth of vision, a revolutionary who reinvigorated Greek painting and left a rich legacy of works full of vitality and inner truth that can deservedly stand next to the great masterpieces of early European modernism."2 1 "In his portraiture, Lytras is mainly interested in rendering the face, and especially the eyes, while the clothes of his sitters are described in a generalised fashion." H.G. Gotsi, The Painter Nikos Lytras 1883-1927 (doctoral dissertation) [in Greek], Thessaloniki, 1992, p. 62. 2 M. Lambraki-Plaka, introduction to A. Kouria, D. Portolos, Nikos Lytras, Building Form with Colour and Light [in Greek], exhibition catalogue, National Gallery - Alexandros Soutzos Museum & Hellenic Literary and Historical Archive, Athens 2008, p.14.

Portolos, Nikos Lytras, Building Form with Colour and Light, National Gallery, Athens, 2008, page 240, illustrated The son of Nikiforos Lytras, he was first taught art by his father and later studied at The School of Fine Arts, Athens graduating with merit. In 1907, on a scholarship, he studied at the studio of Ludwig von Hofftz at The Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Munich. In 1911 he returned to Greece and fought in the Balkan war of 1912-1913. In 1923 he was elected a professor at The School of Fine Arts, Athens. He made a significant contribution to the school, as he encouraged the teaching of new, modern movements and ideas in art that were occurring at the time. He was one of the first Greek artists to break away from the more academic school of thought and embrace the teachings of modern art. His work is found in many public and private collections, notably that of: The National Gallery, Athens; The Athens Municipal Gallery; The National Bank of Greece; The Averoff Gallery and The Leventis Gallery.
