Stillleben mit Birnen und Aprikosen. 1940.
Oil on canvas.
Monogrammed and dated (in the moist paint) in upper left. 27 x 45 cm (10.6 x 17.7 in). [EH].
• Karl Hofer's still lifes are fascinating for their compositions and the nuanced color arrangements.
• Through his play with bright green and yellow, he brings colors of hope into the contemplative landscape of this spatially delimited still life.
• Other still lifes by Karl Hofer are in the Nationalgalerie Berlin (Blumenstillleben, 1944, and Stillleben mit Früchten, 1951) as well as in the Museum Wiesbaden (Stillleben mit Ölkanne, 1929).
PROVENANCE: Private collection Baden-Württemberg ( presumably since 1956, Galerie Valentin).
Ever since in family possession.
EXHIBITION: Karl Hofer Galerie Valentien, Stuttgart August 1956 (no catalog).
LITERATURE: Karl Bernhard Wohlert (ed.), Markus Eisenbeis (ed.), Karl Hofer. Catalogue raisonné of paintings, vol. 2, Cologne 2008, no. 1529.
