Item Details

Description

Gouache on paper, laid down on cardboard
Germany, 1930s
Claus Friedrich Bergen (1885-1964) - German marine painter and illustrator
Signed lower right, ‘Claus Bergen’
Matted and framed under glass
Sheet size: 21 x 28.2 cm
Good condition
Characteristic work of the favorite painter of the Navy, who created numerous paintings on the subject of naval warfare. Bergen’s paper works have sold for up to €8,000 in the international auction market
Object is regular taxed. 19% VAT is added to the purchase price for deliveries within the EU

The present gouache by Claus Friedrich Bergen (1885-1964) continues the tradition of Marine pieces. With the outbreak of World War II, Bergen devoted exclusively to marine painting, which made ??him the official war artist ever since the Battle of Jutland between Britain and the German Empire in 1916. The mainly blue-toned composition is characterized by a strikingly modern image conception, which manifests itself particularly in the airplane Ju 52, which has left rugged traces in the sky. In 1909, Bergen belonged to the founders of the Aero Club in Munich. In the 1930s, he also received contacts with the heads of the German aviation industry, whose premises were soon adorned with his paintings.

The sheet is signed lower right, ‘Claus Bergen’, matted and framed under glass. The condition of the work and frame is good, showing minor wear. The paper has been laid down on cardboard. The overall dimensions, including the frame, are 33 x 40 cm. The sheet size is 21 x 28.2 cm.

Claus Bergen (1885-1964)

Claus Bergen studied at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts with Carl von Marr. He went on study trips to England and in the United States. Bergen worked as a war painter of the High Seas Fleet and was honored with several prices for his work. His circa 450 illustrations for Karl May's ‘Illustrierte Reiseerzählungen’ (Ilustrated Travel Stories) are less known. The German Maritime Museum in Bremerhaven paid tribute to his life's work with a retrospective held in 1982.
