AR38. W. Cappelen, Christiania, Norway. Hans Jude
(1825-1903), Norwegian Landscape painter and professor at Carlsruhe.
Hans Gude
and Adolph Tideman, in a joint work entitled Bridal Crossing in Hardanger,
1848, describe the calm existence of peasant life in the context of an intricate
and spiritual environment. Paintings such as this focused attention on the
uniqueness of Norway, proclaiming a true national identity with strong moral
beliefs. This painting of "high technical quality" is "perhaps the most popular
painting in Norwegian art." Works such as this "can be still numbered among
those pre-realist paintings that were gradually to change European Painting"
(104). Many Norwegian painters in the Düsseldorf school created works that
defined varying positions between man and nature. In Højfjell, 1857, Hans
Gude masterfully balances light and subject matter, foreground and background,
through a sharp realism and balanced play of light. As painting in the
Düsseldorf school moved gradually toward the suggestive, Gude's paintings became
more realistic and gave the power of the painting over to the majesty and
constancy of nature. In this manner, Gude suggested the plein-air tradition to
come. CDV. G. $50
