About the Item
Signed lower left, 'Georg W. Rössner' for Georg Walter Rössner (German, 1885-1972), titled 'Bildnis Lieselotte Friedländer' and painted circa 1926; original artist card verso.
A substantial, Modernist portrait of the German fashion designer and feminist icon, Lieselotte Friedländer, shown seated in a chromed-steel Bauhaus chair with a view beyond to a sunlit, woodland grove.
Georg Rössner first studied in Berlin and, later, in Paris with Lovis Corinth. Rössner was a member of both the Berlin and Munich Sezession committees and, in 1920, was appointed professor at Berlin’s Staatliche Kunstschule. Over the course of a long career, Rössner exhibited internationally with success including at the 1929 Paris Exhibition des Peintres-Graveurs Allemands. His work is held in prominent private and public collections including the permanent collection of the National Gallery in Berlin.
Born in 1898, Lieselotte Friedländer moved to Berlin with her family in 1909. By the mid-1920s, she had established herself as the Weimar Republic's most influential fashion designer. Her drawings of elegant, adventurous women soon overflowed Berlin’s cafe landscape to become iconic templates for feminists and the avant-garde world-wide. Friedländer's fashion vision contributed significantly to women’s increasing emancipation in the professions, social activism, sports and self-determined eroticism. Rössner's elegant portrait of Friedländer, shown in her late twenties, stands as poignant testament to both her earthly beauty and her enduring legacy.
Accompanied by a first-edition copy of 'Lieselotte Friedländer (1898-1973)' by Burcu Dogramaci; published 2001 by Ernst Wasmuth Verlag Tübingen, Berlin.
