Karl Kahl
(Riga 1873–1938 Tomsk)
Still Life with an Asian Vase and a Mirror, signed, dated Kahl (19)13, oil on canvas, 76.5 x 60 cm, unframed
Provenance:
Private Collection, Germany.
We are grateful to Dr. Olga Sugrobova-Roth for her scientific assistance.
Karl Kahl attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Düsseldorf. He lived in Munich and Karlsruhe, visiting Paris, Belgium and Holland. From 1898 onwards, he lived in Vitebsk. He received a Silver Medal at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis (Louisiana Purchase Exposition), and his painting was acquired by the Toledo Museum of Art (Ohio, USA). The present lot combines the stylistic features of Art Nouveau, which Kahl adopted in Europe, with a Chinese vase motif that was still a novelty in his oeuvre at the time.
