Caroline Van Deurs, Else's Letter

Caroline Van Deurs, Else's LetterThis early 20th century oil painting by Danish artist Caroline van Deurs (1860 1932) depicts a woman writing a letter by a window with a city view beyond. Van Deurs (1860 1932) was an accomplished painter of genre scenes, landscapes and interiors. She was trained by the grandfather of Danish landscape painting, Vilhelm Kyhn (1819 1903), and spent two years in Paris. Above all else, Van Deurs was a storyteller, describing with great skill and elegance

He produced landscapes with finesse and nous

she strikes an interesting form

Canvas could be easily cleaned to revive its rich colours but we prefer it as it is

of King Albert I and Queen Elizabeth

A large expressive oil painting from the late 60s by Swedish painter

which rests on her foot

which is the year that Vernon Hill exhibited a work titled ‘Sea Frolic’ at the Leicester Galleries

In that respect
