ROBERT PHILIPPI* (Graz 1877 - 1959 Vienna)
Madonna
watercolor and indian ink/paper, 57,5 x 16 cm
ESTIMATE °€ 400 - 800
STARTING PRICE °€ 400
Robert Philippi studied with the theater painter Robert Kautsky and at the private painting school Streblow in Vienna. From 1893 to 1896 he attended the Vienna Academy with Christian Griepenkerl and Josef Mathias Trenkwald and later the Vienna School of Applied Arts with Felician Myrbach and Alfred Roller. There he became an assistant to Franz ?ižek. Apparently, he was also a student at the Bauhaus in Weimar; the annual folder published in 1919 by the Society for Reproducing Art in Vienna for students of the Bauhaus contains his woodcut Nude/The Scared Woman on sheet 4. Philippi first worked in drawings and woodcuts and from 1925 he increasingly turned to painting. Philippi is considered to have been influenced by the art of Gustav Klimt. He was a member of the Hagenbund until 1925 (Carry Hauser, Karl Hauk, Rudolf Pointner, Ernst Paar, Ludwig Jungnickel, etc.).
