John Bauer (1882-1918) - Sagoflickan
Oil on canvas. Painted in 1912.
53.5 x 55.1 inches, 136 x 140 cm. Estimate: SEK 7,000,000-8,000,000.
Sold Bukowskis, Stockholm, 12 Dec 2024 for SEK 7,000,000 + B.P.
Bauer was a famed Swedish illustrator of books on Nordic myths, legends and folk tales. His inspiration for the depiction of the fairy girl came from both his wife and Renaissance paintings of the Virgin Mary.
Tragically, Bauer, perished alongside his wife and child when the steamer Per Brahe capsized and sank on Lake Vättern, southern Sweden, in bad weather. All aboard died.
