Beautiful self-portrait of Edith Pijpers, as painters have done for centuries: with 1 flower between thumb and index finger.
Edith Pijpers always painted in full warm colours. With the paint applied firmly.
She was a student of H.J. Wolter and played an important role in the art life of Amersfoort. In the magazine de Stijl she placed an article in which she described modern art as distant, cold, formless and insensitive. Theo van Doesburg answered her in the same magazine that a different time and new culture had dawned with a different consciousness and vision and ways of expression, which was especially visible in art.
A large painting of hers is currently on display in the exhibition Radical - Female Artists and Modernism 1910-1950, in the Arnhem Museum.
Her works are in collections of various museums.
Due to the size of the painting, only pick up or courier possible.
