Lot description

Watercolour. 42,5 x 28 cm. Lo. le. sign. J. Wolf-Thorn, matted and framed under glass, uninspected out of frame. - German painter. W. studied in Berlin from 1890 and continued her education at the Académie Colarossi in Paris from 1892. She then settled in Berlin, where she exhibited at the Secession and the Great Berlin Art Exhibition from 1899. Julie Wolfthorn, unjustly forgotten for a long time after her death, was one of the most prayerful and sought-after portrait painters in Berlin society in the first three decades of the 20th century. She was one of the few women who were able to assert themselves in this segment. In 1898, she was also one of the co-founders of the Berlin Secession, and later she was even a member of its jury. Mus.: Kiel. Lit.: Thieme-Becker, Künstlerlexikon Ostpreußen und Westpreußen.
