Konrad Witz

Konrad Witz (1400-1445) The Synagoge jrt (~1435) Öffentliche Kunstsammlung, Basel
Witz's earliest paintings are done on oak panels-also used by Netherlandish painters-but his later ones are on pine or fir. His paintings were attributed variously to such painters as "Giotto", "Guido da Siena", "Franco-Burgundian School", and "Follower of Geertgen tot Sint Jans", until 1896. In that year the Curator of the Basel Museum, Daniel Burckhardt grouped paintings by the same hand, some of which were in museums and others still in private collections. He recognized the Geneva Altarpiece as a work by the same person, and noted its prominent inscription "Magister Conradus de Basilea".

Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) Femme dans un fauteuil (1922)
En pastellmålning av Picassos hustru Olga Koklova (1891-1954). Teckningen är förstärkt med en svart linje. Det är ett vackert porträtt, figuren har volym, färgerna är mättade. Enkelhet och harmoni präglar bilden.

Andrea del Sorto

Andrea del Sorto (1486-1530) Madonna delle Arpie (Madonna of the Harpies) (1517)
En märklig målning som man funderat över. "The most recent interpretation is that it is a depiction, based on the text of the Book of Revelations, of the Virgin triumphant over evil, symbolized by the monstrous figures, the "harpies," which are in fact the "locusts" mentioned in Revelations; and besides that, bears witness to the cult of the Virgin by the clients, the conventual Franciscans."

Wilhelm von Gegerfeldt

Wilhelm von Gegerfeldt (1844-1920)
Han gjorde studieresor till Frankrikes nordkust, till hemlandet och till Italien, målade skymning över Venedigs kajer, månsken över lagunerna, kritklippor vid Engelska kanalen i gråstämning, svenska sommarnätter, allt med elegant pensel, smekande färg och livligt föredrag.

Theodore Robinson

Theodore Robinson (1852–1896) Winter in New York city, Metropolitan Museum (?)
He was one of the first American artists to take up impressionism in the late 1880s, visiting Giverny and developing a close friendship with Claude Monet. Several of his works are considered masterpieces of American Impressionism. In 1884 Robinson returned to France where he would live for the next eight years, visiting America only occasionally. 

Gabriel von Max

Gabriel von Max (1840-1915) The Lion’s Bride (1908)
He illustrated works of German literature by Wieland, Lenau and Schiller, as well as producing illustrations for Goethe’s Faust (1867–8; Prague, N.G., Kinsky Palace). As well as literary and even musical sources, religious themes frequently occur in his work, including his first great success, the Crucifixion of St Julie (1867; ex-Sotheby’s, London, 1976). In numerous female figures and portraits Max explored the tension between the inner state and the charm of the physical appearance or surroundings of his subjects.
