Emil Carlsen: A collection of 183 paintings (HD)
Description: "Emil Carlsen was born in Copenhagen on October 19, 1853. He studied architecture at the Danish Royal Academy between 1868 and 1872. He emigrated to America in 1872, settled in Chicago, and found work as an assistant to a local architect. For a time he also worked for a fellow Dane, the painter Lauritis Bernhard Holst (1848-1934). When Holst returned to Denmark in 1874, he turned his studio over to Carlsen, who had by this time decided to become a full-time painter. Upon the recommendation of the Chicago sculptor Leonard Wells Volk (1828-1895), Carlsen was appointed the first instructor at the newly formed school of the Art Institute.
In 1875 Carlsen returned briefly to Denmark and then went to Paris, where he stayed for six months. While there, he carefully studied the works of the eighteenth-century painter Jean Siméon Chardin (1699-1779). Returning to New York in 1875, the artist set up his own studio, but he had to supplement his meager income from painting by working as an engraver and designer. In 1879 financial difficulties forced him to hold an auction of thirty of his works, but the proceeds did not even cover the sale's expenses.
In the early 1880s Carlsen began to develop a reputation as a still-life painter. Commissioned by a dealer to paint saleable flower pieces, he returned to Paris in 1884, where he remained for two years, painting numerous brightly-colored pictures. Eventually, he grew tired of this repetitious work and broke the contract he had made with the dealer. Carlsen went back to New York and opened a studio on West 57th Street. He worked there until 1887, when he began a two-year tenure as director of the San Francisco Art Association's school. He resigned this post in 1889 but remained in San Francisco until 1891.
Carlsen again settled in New York in 1891 and began teaching at the National Academy of Design, where he would continue as an instructor until 1918. He was married in 1896 and numbered among his friends in New York William Merritt Chase, J. Alden Weir, and Childe Hassam. During the first three decades of the twentieth century his works were included in numerous exhibitions and he won many prizes. In 1911 he began an association with the New York dealer William Macbeth, and was given one-man shows at Macbeth's gallery in 1912, 1919, 1921 and 1923. Carlsen died in New York on January 2, 1932."

[@elizabethhestevold1340]

Unfamiliar, Emil Carlson, his Still lives outstanding, rich in color shawdows , texture and Compositions. Really remarkable. Really a treasure Artist. Beautiful works..🇩🇰🇺🇸🗽🦅🌷

[@albinveselka258]

He was one of the greatest. His landscapes have a way of communicating on a spiritual level.

[@sugarlessroark]

Good color, GREAT composition, and rigorous drawing worthy of portraits in his landscapes.

[@tjs9876]

What mastery. The variety of subtle colour and texture. I especially love those moody high key landscapes

[@lextrant1]

Piękne pejzaże i wspaniałe martwe natury. Widać przechodzenie od realizmu do impresjonizmu. Można też dostrzec, jak impresjonizm pejzaży staje się w niektórych realizacjach bliski abstrakcji. Natomiast w martwych naturach mistrzowskie jest ukazanie materii namalowanych obiektów: naczyń, kwiatów, ptaków i ryb. A także gry światła na przedmiotach. Bardzo dziękuję za udostępnienie prezentacji i serdecznie pozdrawiam z Polski. ❤

There is one particular piece missing from your presentation. That would be the Original that is displayed in my home. Anyone can search "Lady feeding Chickens" to see it. This was displayed about 1938 at the Art Institute Chicago and has been in our family since 1936. But, very nice to see most of Carlsen's work together. Thank you for putting this together.

[@aryehfinklestein9041]

Am ashamed to admit that I have never heard of this artist - so thankyou for the introduction. Quite magnificent!!!

Artist like this is why I started painting.

[@sabrinanascimento1267]

Beautiful paintings and still life.

[@oowaz]

thank you so much for doing putting this together! one thing i'd note is that the "zoom in" kinda hurts the painting slightly because the zoom reframes the picture, i understand it allows showing more of the texture and fine details but still, in the process you're losing information from the parts being "cut"

[@patriciasorenson7979]

Outstanding. Thank you for presenting these for us.

[@ironfistarrival]

[@sabrinanascimento1267]

My twin Georg Wagner is here on KZbin with his own channel. He knows Art.

[@leonidti9221]

Когда жил художник?

[@zzausel]

Many still lifes should spell still deaths.

[@francoisebeylie2923]

In French, we call "still life", "Nature morte", it is more appropriate.

[@DNOX-bn3qy]

Dullllllll.....

[@lifeasis266]

Great Painter, but the paintings too dark and dull to me too. Even bright colors in seascapes are too sad colors. It possibly was his inner condition. Anyways, you will not find Painters of the same level nowadays. Unfortunately...RIP, Dear Emil. You did an outstanding job.
