"Rainbow over Venice", Hanns Pellar (1886-1971), ca. 1910, oil on fiberboard, signed
The Viennese painter Hanns Pellar was also called “painter of elegance” by his contemporaries. Pellar attended the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts from 1905 to 1906 and attended Franz von Stuck’s painting school until 1908.
With his detailed and typically Viennese works, Hanns Pellar soon attracted the attention of several famous art patrons and was appointed to the Künstlerkolonie Darmstadt by the Grand Duke of Hesse in 1911. There, he specialized mainly in portrait painting and thus became known to an elite circle of collectors. His imaginative and brilliant depictions of ladies of the high society in elegant dresses were particularly appreciated.
His humorous and partly erotic scenes taken from society are also worth mentioning. In his pictures, Hanns Pellar skilfully combines the mysticism of Franz von Stuck with the ornamentation and colourfulness of the Vienna Secessionists.
