About the Item

Coloured and black chalk on paper Stamp ‘NACHLASS Osmar Schindler 1867-1927’. 58cm x 36cm, (68cm x 48cm framed) Osmar Schindler was a German painter belonging to the Dresden Academy school of artists. He is known for landscapes, portraits, religious and mythological scenes, and contributions to interior décor. He became a professor at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts in 1900 and taught students like George Grosz and Otto Dix. In the vast majority of his work, there is an overwhelming homoerotic flavour, often disguised with an appropriate alibi, such as German Romanticism or classicism. He had an immense talent for drawing, something which he had acquired by an early age, and which he would retain throughout his life. As with most traditionally trained artists, drawing remained a cornerstone for Schindler’s artistic practice, and he would invariably start any painting with a series of graphic studies. Although it is not possible to directly attribute this study to any particular painting, the focus of the work - the model’s pronounced forearm and bicep - is similar to his painting Muskelspiel (Muscle Play), 1907 (depicted).
