Oil Paintings Depicting Maritime Subjects Highlight Barridoff Auctions’ Upcoming Sale
Apr 01, 2023 13:00 EDTAmerican artist Bror Julius Olsson Nordfeldt was well known for his paintings of seascapes, landscapes, and Native cultures of New Mexico. His compositions of nature often reflected strong emotions. Barridoff Auctions’ upcoming sale will feature one such work by Nordfeldt. Titled Flight of Birds (1946), the oil on panel includes a frame with signature and Passedoit Gallery label on the verso. Another significant oil painting in this sale is Montague Dawson’s Gliding Along, the Deb. The maritime-subject work is titled and inscribed “The new 5.5 meter yacht, y Nicholsons.” The British painter usually portrayed sailing ships such as warships/clippers of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Rolph Scarlett’s abstract oil on canvas is another notable lot. The artist is famous for his lively geometric compositions. German-born American painter Wolf Kahn’s Magentato Yellow is a striking pastel on paper, noteworthy for its picturesque landscape and abstraction. It exemplifies his visualization of nature that combined realism and color field. He would use a vibrant and sprightly color palette in his works to depict forests and foggy morning scenes.
