About the Item

This mid-20th-century abstract landscape by American modernist Henriette “Yetti” Stolz beautifully blends stylized natural forms with expressive color fields. Painted in rich, earthy tones of gold, brown, orange, and blue, the composition presents a rhythmic forest scene where trees are distilled into bold vertical shapes and layered hues. Stolz’s modernist approach emphasizes structure and emotion over realism, creating a landscape that feels both grounded and dreamlike. Executed in oil on canvas and signed on the back, the painting reflects Stolz’s deep engagement with modernist ideas circulating through Colorado in the 1950s and 1960s. Influenced by artists such as Mary Chenoweth and Emerson Woelffer, Stolz developed a distinct visual language that combined organic motifs with abstract expression. The work is presented in a vintage frame, measuring 30 ¾ x 36 ¼ inches overall, with an image size of 30 ¼ x 35 ¾ inches. Provenance: Estate of the Artist, Henriette “Yetti” Stolz. Born in Serbia in 1935, Stolz immigrated to Denver after WWII and studied art at Colorado College. Although she did not pursue a public artistic career, her paintings—such as this vibrant abstract landscape—reveal a unique and thoughtful interpretation of mid-century modernism. This piece offers collectors an intimate, evocative example of an overlooked but compelling Colorado artist.
