About Norbertine von Bresslern-Roth

Norbertine von Bresslern-Roth (1891–1978) was an Austrian painter, printmaker, and illustrator celebrated for her vigorous portrayals of animals. Born in Graz on November 13, 1891, she trained at the Landeskunstschule in Graz from 1907 to 1911 and then at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna from 1911 to 1916. She traveled widely to observe animals directly, visiting zoological gardens across Europe to build a deep visual vocabulary of wildlife. Her output spans oil painting, watercolor, gouache, linocut, graphic prints, drawing, and miniature painting, with linocut animal compositions forming a signature part of her practice. She also produced book illustrations, including work for editions of Andersen's fairy tales. Active through much of the twentieth century in Graz, she stands as one of Austria's distinctive modern women artists. Collectors most often encounter her graphic prints and animal studies today.

Common works and media

Linocut and woodcut prints of animals — especially big cats, exotic birds, and zoo subjects — are the most commonly encountered works by Bresslern-Roth at auction. She also produced watercolors, gouaches, oil paintings, drawings, and miniatures. Illustrations for published books, including Andersen's fairy tales, also surface in the market. Her subject matter is overwhelmingly animal-based, reflecting decades of direct zoo observation across Europe.

Market and appraisal context

Works by Norbertine von Bresslern-Roth appear at auction chiefly in Central European salerooms. Her linocuts and graphic prints of animals are the category most frequently offered, with oil paintings, watercolors, and gouaches appearing less often. Key valuation factors include the medium and technique, edition details for prints, subject matter (animal subjects dominate her market presence), provenance clarity, condition, and period of execution. Signed prints with documented provenance tend to achieve stronger results. Attribution should be verified through cataloguing, since her name appears in several variant forms across auction records and databases.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Value drivers

  1. Medium: linocut prints are more commonly encountered than unique oil paintings or watercolors
  2. Subject: animal subjects, particularly exotic and zoo animals, dominate her output

Appraisal caveats

  • No specific auction price records or realized prices were available in the source pack; valuation guidance is general.
  • The artist's name appears in multiple variant forms (Bresslern-Roth, von Bresslern-Roth, Norbertine von Bresslern, Norbertine von Roth), which can complicate auction record searches.
