The figure of the guard exudes pride and grandeur and his pose in unyielding and commanding. This same figure appears in another work that bears the same title from 1900, which is currently in the Nadj Collection. A number of Deutsch's favorite props, such as the Indo-Persian helmet and shield as well as the exquisitely embroidered green silk fabric, appear in both compositions. <br /><br />A study for the present painting illustrates the astonishingly exact and detailed planning involved. Deutsch produced many sketches and color studies before moving forward with a composition, and it is apparent that with each stage of planning and execution he aimed for perfection.<br /><br />Deutsch's use of architecture is similar to a stage set, as it utilizes to help reinforce the human figure. In his composition of the palace guard, Deutsch frequently used columns, gateways, exquisitely worked masonry and marbles to accentuate the might and glory of his sitters. <br /><br />Source Christie's Catalog New York April 2006, p. 36</blockquote>Enzie Shahmirihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13959938138147453529noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8627292643272759508.post-75069685741939941262007-10-07T21:45:00.000-07:002008-06-16T17:34:41.001-07:00The Palace Guard 1893<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/artenzie/1525320606/" title="The palace guard 1893 by Portrait Artist - Enzie Shahmiri, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2186/1525320606_73032007e8.jpg" width="338" height="500" alt="The palace guard 1893" /></a><br /><br />Artist: Ludwig Deutsch<br />Signed upper left L.

(64.8x47cm)<br /><br />Although the model in the present work from 1893 is different than the one used for the 'Palace Guard of 1892', many of the architectural details, garments, arms and armor appear to be the same. Working from live for this artist meant that he could observe minute details and capture them in his work. Thus having props, which he had gathered through his trip to the Middle East became an invaluable tool to be used over and over throughout different paintings. <br /><br /><blockquote> The intensely detailed depiction of the guard enhances by his isolated framing produce a psychologically penetrating image. By capturing the slightly quizzical element to his expression, Deutsch conveys the nobility, strength and grace that were the essence of a palace guard. As the light glimmers on his mighfar's chain mail, the Persian brass shield leaning against the white marble column and reflects across the gold and the pink silks of his garments, it also highlights his full lips and illuminates his richly dark skin. The glorious combination of the guards majestic posture enhanced by luscious textiles, powerful and glittering armor enveloped by a spectacular Andalusian double arched entrance is an evidence of Deutsch's astounding dexterity. <br />Source: P.

It looks like Deutsch applied paint in short strokes, similar to hatching with a pencil. The light source and play of shadows is recorded in high contrast to each other (see her right hand), very unlike the smooth value gradation we are used to seeing in his final products. This leaves me to believe that this might be a color study.Enzie Shahmirihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13959938138147453529noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8627292643272759508.post-76917910786680365392007-10-05T21:13:00.000-07:002007-10-07T22:18:21.944-07:00Interior of a Mosque 1902<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pvRBXrxltbsygERXs_hci8FGb4Lr3aowwrW1nt97oVZAqbPM2pIYhKEFE9o1m1aaZy6QGZMGM4uY5aLpE05MiBSTckjI0i-tUsKPh4XQuDG0aACkLmPZj2bW2R7bPLxYDkNzMwv5Qsk/s1600-h/morning_prayer1902.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pvRBXrxltbsygERXs_hci8FGb4Lr3aowwrW1nt97oVZAqbPM2pIYhKEFE9o1m1aaZy6QGZMGM4uY5aLpE05MiBSTckjI0i-tUsKPh4XQuDG0aACkLmPZj2bW2R7bPLxYDkNzMwv5Qsk/s400/morning_prayer1902.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5118072172657542546" /></a><br /><br />Signed upper left L.

Deutsch has captured the meditative, solitary mood of the individual worshippers. <br /><br /><br /><blockquote>In Morning Prayer there are some compositional similarities with his earlier paintings of palace guards. The apparent and expressive focal points, such as the red Turkish babouches, the 19th Century northwestern Persian carpet, the Syrian lamp and the mother-of-pearl inlaid kursi are all archetypal elements of Deutsch's painting. Furthermore the juxtaposition of the wine red sash against the cadmium red striped silk robe (aba) of the standing figure, set against his brilliant white turban is masterfully balanced against the massive size of the Ptlomaic granite pillar. Together with the figure depicted praying in elaborate costume, another man in very humble attire is seen meditating to the side. The abscense of a spatial hierarchy as well as one religious ceremony that all members follow simultaniously is in line with a mosque's essential function as a provider of shelter for congregational prayer.

Having encountered merchants and healers of medicinal herbs, Deutsch was facinated by them and has represented them in another larger painting. <br /><br />The blue and red tapestry draws the focus on the main figure of the healer. This quiet exchange between the healer and his young customers lacks the usual high finish detail of his other works, yet he still embellishes the surroundings with a beautiful backdrop.Enzie Shahmirihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13959938138147453529noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8627292643272759508.post-14494476643316098032007-10-05T20:22:00.000-07:002008-06-16T19:39:26.222-07:00The Philosopher, 1897<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/artenzie/1497712366/" title="the_philosopher by Portrait Artist - Enzie Shahmiri, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2183/1497712366_61ae31464e.jpg" width="400" height="359" alt="the_philosopher" /></a><br /><br />Artist: LudwigDeutsch<br />Signed lower left L.
