Lot description
Mythologische Szene. Um 1950/55.
Oil on paper.
Signed in lower right. On paper. 42.5 x 55 cm (16.7 x 21.6 in), the full sheet.
PROVENANCE: Private collection Hanover (since 2005, Bassenge).
LITERATURE: Bassenge, Berlin, 87th auction on April 27, 2006, lot 6643.
"..And it is no coincidence that such a completely different nature as Markus Lüpertz, the man with the painter's fist, refers quite openly to formal elements of the Rhenish Italian-German [Werner Gilles], who had found his second home in Sant-Angelo.." Karl Ruhrberg wrote this in the introduction to the exhibition catalog "Werner Gilles" (May 8 - August 8, 1987) at Galerie Vömel Düsseldorf. Our sheet in particular makes this comparison very comprehensible and shows the modernity Werner Gilles has found in his oeuvre.
In good condition.
