Jakub Obrovsky Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Sculptor, Illustrator, Draft draughtsman

Jakub Obrovský (December 24, 1882 – March 31, 1949) was a Czech artist, sculptor and writer.

Jakub Obrovský was born in Brno-Bystrc. He studied at the School of Applied Arts in Prague with Celda Kloucek, EK Liška and Stanislav Sucharda (1897-1901) and continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts with Max Pirner (1901-1905). In 1919 he became a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts, and later served as the rector.

Obrovský favored women's figures in his paintings, and often sculpted figures of athletes. He designed early stamps of the new Republic of Czechoslovakia: the lion escaping from its chains (28 October 1919) and the allegory of economy (1920).[1]

In 1932 he won a bronze medal for Czechoslovakia in the art competitions of the Olympic Games for his "Odysseus" (see Art competitions at the 1932 Summer Olympics).[2]

Obrovský died in Prague. His daughter Jana Obrovská (1930 – 1987) became a noted Czech composer.

        JAKUB OBROVSKÝ 1882 - 1949 - GIRL IN THE GARDEN

        Est: -

        Jakub Obrovský used a lot of nudes, rendez-vous in the garden and placed beautiful girls in the environment of sunlit and relaxed gardens. Several typical features are evident in the presented canvas - romantic lyricism, spontaneous and dynamic colors and brisk, striking handwriting. Jakub Obrovský's success during his lifetime was limited by the development of the avant-garde, which considered him artistically unacceptable. Despite this, he achieved success by being admitted to the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts (1913), to the Paris Societé Nationale des Beaux-Arts (1921), and in 1935 he was appointed rector of the Prague Academy. Dedicated to: Dear friend Arch. Sláma. Technique: oil on canvas, Signed: sign. lower left: J. Obrovský 1916

        LOVERS

        Est: -

        A frolicsome rural motif from this Moravian painter’s oeuvre offers a glance at a playful scene of two lovers in a garden. Jakub Obrovský paints female figures and young lovers’ trysts in a vibrant variation of tones with fresh curiosity and spontaneous joy. The young man kisses the young woman on her exposed neck, while the woman, wearing a hat and with a rose in her hair, smiles blissfully. In the shade of the garden the young couple enjoy a stolen moment of privacy together, abandoning their garden work, as seen by the watering jug and shovel that have been put aside. An interesting denouement is offered on the right side of the painting, where a child’s hand reaches up out from under the blankets on a blue cradle, waving for attention. Such a moment of tenderness is all the more uncommon. The painting is mounted in the original Jindřich Eck frame. Born to a rural farmer’s family, Jakub Obrovský studied under Max Pirner at the Academy of Fine Arts. In 1909 he entered the Association of Moravian Fine Artists, and ten years later he was appointed as a professor of painting at the Academy.

        JAKUB OBROVSKY (1882-1949): IN NATURE

        Est: -

        1914 205 x 140 cm (h x w) Oil on canvas. Signed lower left: "Obrovsky 1914". This monumental, large-format painting is distinctive for its composition and fresh, spirited color. The canvas divulges the artist’s enchantment with symbolist tendencies (which he acquired during his studies under Professor Maximilián Pirner), Art Nouveau decorativeness and traditional academic painting (from Max Svabinsky); this work also hints at more progressive movements, which at that time were represented in the work of Jan Preisler. Like many artists at the fin de siècle, Obrovsky attempted to capture the natural state of man’s harmony in paradises lost in idyllic timelessness. Submerged in his own ideas, he created a relationship to nature dominated by a deep passion for the beauty of the female body, reaching back to antiquity and Renaissance models. Not only this decorative wall panel, but also his other works, including ones of this character, show signs of quality that are evident especially in the fresh color and masterful brushwork. The overall artistic impression is also underlined by the optimistic, harmonious atmosphere. This unique work dates from around 1914, a period that is attractive among collectors. A Czech figurative painter, graphic artist and sculptor, Obrovsky was a student of the School of Applied Arts in Prague in 1897–1901, and in 1901–1905 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts under Emanuel Krescenc Liska and later Maximilián Pirner. He was noted for his talent already as a student; he painted decorative panels and friezes for exhibitions in Prague and Pilsen. In 1907 he received a scholarship from the Hlávka Foundation, which he used to travel to Rome. There he met Otakar Nejedly and Jan Stursa, with whom he traveled throughout Sicily and Syracuse. After he returned, he focused on several interesting public commissions to decorate bank facades and exhibition pavilions. He also painted the altar paintings and frescos in the Church of Saint Wenceslas in Prague–Bohnice. Portrayals of traveling gypsies in his home region was one of his typical subjects. He started to focus on sculpting after 1923. He was a member of the Czech Academy of Sciences and later became a member of the Société Nationale des Beaux Arts in Paris; in 1919 he became a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. He regularly traveled to exhibitions at home and abroad, where he was received with deserved success. Ref.: Zlatá Praha, 1919, vol. 36., no. 23–24, p. 156. Starting price: 380 000 CZK (14 902 EUR)
