ESTIMATE °€ 800 - 1000
STARTING PRICE °€ 800
The Austrian portrait and genre painter Albert Janesch studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts from 1904 to 1912. His teachers were Siegmund l'Allemand and Franz Rumpler. During the First World War, Janesch was employed as a war painter in the art group of the k.u.k. Kriegspressequartier (Imperial and Royal War Press Department). He worked in Belgrade, Trieste, on the Isonzo front and on the Turkish front. In 1916, Janesch received the first prize in the war memorial competition. During the Second World War, Janesch was again employed as a war painter, working on the south and west coasts of France, in Russia and Greece. After the war, he was commissioned to fresco the "Iron Hall" of the newly built artillery hall of the Museum of Military History in Vienna. In 1952/53, for example, he executed the fresco "The Artillery of Emperor Maximilian I.", based on a painting by Joerg Koelderer. From 1939 to 1945 Janesch was president of the artists' association "Alte Welt".
