Description: | Conrad Kiesel (1846-1921) was a successful painter of female portraits and genre scenes of young women in antique costume. This is a typical example of his work portraying spirited, beautiful women wearing vaguely classical dress in flowery settings. He worked in Berlin and Munich, becoming a member of the Berlin Fine Art Academy in 1892. He exhibited in Berlin, Paris and London, and received several medals and honourable mentions for his work. He was popular with English collectors who admired his ability to capture likeness, use of colour, and his portrayal of refined upper class models. | Subjects: | everyday life; figure; animal (pigeons) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Kiesel, Conrad (German painter, 1846-1921) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8656... | Go to resource |
