Univ.-Prof. Manfred Schreiner, Institute for Natural Sciences and Technology in Art, Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, June 2024 is available upon request. We are grateful to Anelyia Nikolaeva, Bulgarian National Gallery, Sofia for kindly confirming the authenticity on basis of high-resolution photographs. Born in the Bulgarian village of Brenitsa, Ivan Angelov began his artistic training at the School of Applied Arts in Munich in 1881 and studied at the Royal Bavarian Academy of Fine Arts under Carl Theodor von Piloty from 1882. After graduating, he returned to his native Bulgaria in 1886 and initially taught as a grammar school teacher in Varna, then in Sofia. His first solo exhibition took place in 1887 and the young artist enjoyed great success with his genre paintings and Bulgarian landscapes. In order to complete his professional artistic training, he travelled to Rome in 1888-1889, where he became acquainted with the works of the Italian masters and studied the works of Italian artists of his time. After his return to his homeland, he continued to teach in Sliven, Plovdiv and Sofia and in 1890 was appointed professor of painting and drawing at the newly opened state drawing school in Sofia. He was a member of the Bulgarian Artists' Association and regularly took part in its exhibitions. Angelov represented Bulgarian art with his works at numerous major international art exhibitions at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries: Belgrade (1904, 1912), London (1907), Florence (1909, 1910), Venice (1910), Rome (1911), Vienna and Budapest (1922) and Prague (1926 in memoriam). He was one of the most important figures in Bulgarian artistic life in the first decades after independence and one of the founders of the so-called ‘New Bulgarian Art’. The main theme in his oeuvre was peasant life and field labour in all its facets. The hard labour and arduous everyday life of the farmers aroused the artist's interest and desire to depict their lives in all their complexity. As in the present lot, which is probably a second version of the painting “Storm in the heart and in the sky”.
