About the Item

‘Passeggiata in Carrozza’ by Alfredo Tominz (1854-1936) The painting – which depicts an elegant couple in a gig with their Miniature Pinscher running ahead – is signed by the artist and presented in a fine quality gold leaf frame. Tominz frequently signed his paintings under the pseudonym “J. Harwey” as a way of getting around an exclusivity contract with one of his dealers. Alfredo Tominz was a fashionable and highly successful Italian painter of Belle Époque equestrian scenes, similar in style and execution to the work of his contemporaries Giuseppe De Nittis (1846-1884) and Jean Beraud (1849-1935). The painting is signed by the artist with his pseudonym “J. Harwey”, and presented in a fine quality gold leaf frame. Academy Fine Paintings is fully conversant with the legal exemptions which, under the supreme law of the U.S. Constitution, enable us to ship paintings to America free of reciprocal trade tariffs. Clients should also note that tracked and signed for international shipping is always complimentary. Academy Fine Paintings only offers artwork for sale in the finest condition it can be for its age having been professionally cleaned, conserved, and re-varnished. After training with his father in Trieste he moved to Munich to become a student of Emil Adam (1843-1924), a celebrated painter of elegant equine portraits. Tominz’s reputation as a master of movement and anatomical accuracy and understanding of horse breeds won him many aristocratic European patrons including Alessandro Durini the 6th Count of Monza, Erwein von Schönborn-Buchheim, and Count Coronini in Austria. Latterly, he became known for his large-scale paintings of Ancient Rome. During his career Tominz exhibited in Vienna, Rome, Milan, and Turin, as well as in Prague where his painting of the Circus Maximus was awarded a gold medal at the 1891 World’s Fair, and in Vienna where he won a silver medal at the Exhibition of the Vienna Secession in 1902.

It is not uncommon for paintings by one member of famous family of artists to be mistakenly attributed to a relative; a picture by “the Elder” is erroneously credited as being by “the Younger” and the work of one brother is confused with another, and so on.

Galloping Horse and Rider Alessio Issupoff (1889 Russia-1957 Rome)
Located in SANTA FE, NM
"Galloping Horse and Rider" Alessio Issupoff (1889 Russia-1957 Rome) Oil on wood panel Signed lower right 5 1/2 x8 1/2 (13 1/2 x 16 1/2 frame) inches This is such a stunning little jewel, it's almost hard to believe. Alessio Issupoff dedicated his whole life to art and was shaped by his years at the Moscow School of Painting, and later absorbed a great deal from Impressionism and the work of the Italian Renaissance masters. But he kept his distinctive style and remained true to the idea that excited the generation of painters of the turn of the 20th century — “the embodiment of the great beauty of everything alive.” Alexei Vladimirovich Isupov, known by his Italianized name Alessio Issupoff, was born in Vyatka (now Kirov) on March 10, 1889. The son of an icon carver and gilder, he learned to paint from the artisan painters who worked with his father. Wanting to give expression to his own artistic creativity, the young Alexei did not take up his father's trade but left Vyatka for Moscow where he attended the School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. His mentor was the painter Apollinary Mikhailovich Vasnetsov, brother of Viktor, who introduced him to the Moscow artistic milieu and helped him find work. By studying and visiting museums, Issupoff formed his own aesthetic “taste” by modifying it on contemporary Russian and French Renaissance art...
