Large Impressionist Expressionist Oil Painting-Paris
Large Impressionist - Expressionist painting by listed Dutch artist, Charles Hollman (1877-1953).

This painting was done with oils on canvas and is presented in its original painted wood frame. The painting is titled, signed, and dated, lower left: "STUDIE ~ Ch. Hollman ~ '53" (please see photos, below).

Size: Painting ~ 20" x 27.5" / Frame ~ 24" x 32"

This work depicts an elevated view of the streets and buildings of Paris, including the Arch de Triumph. It appears to be early evening, possibly in winter, and the scene is very animated with automobiles and other activity in the streets. Even the buildings and sky look to be in motion due to the expressionist rendition of the subjects and thick impressionist brushwork.

Charles Hollman is a listed artist and his works appear at auctions, mostly at Christie's in Holland (Amsterdam), but occasionally in French and American auctions as well. I have not found a detailed biography for this artist, but from the titles of his paintings he seems to have worked mostly in Paris and Holland and was fond of city views.

Hollman is listed in Davenport's Art Reference, as well as on ArtPrice and ArtNet. He is noted as having died in 1953, the same year as this painting, and so this may be one of his last works.

This painting is in excellent condition with no damage or previous restoration. The frame is in good condition, with wear to the painted surfaces, as shown in the photos, but in my opinion the painting deserves a better frame and the new owner may want to upgrade the framing.

This work will be a museum quality addition to any collection of European art and look great in any Continental, Mid Century, Eames Era, or Modernist decor. The price of this piece includes insured shipping by UPS Ground within the United States. We are happy to hear from you by e-mail if you have any questions or need more information.
