I’m fascinated by this one. The steam clouds ,the simplicity and the dreamy feel about it.
Painting by Danish artist Bjerke Petersen. 1930’s.
First photo is after restoration.

Now it’s time to get out there in the spring evenings in Copenhagen - and it feels good! 💃😎☀️🌷

Lovely little painting of roof tops in Ribe 1936 by Danish painter Stephan Ussing.
From a time where we still had storks in Denmark…

There’s a bit of fairytale in this painting with the dark trees and and the sunbeam lighting up the white flowers. They seem to dance..
Swipe to see how it looked before restoration 👉

I love the way a simple strip lining and remounting of a painting on the stretcher can do miracles! Look for yourself 👀
But…l still look forward to clean it 😁

Fandt en af mine gamle tegninger forleden dag….fra sidst i 80’erne…
Så vildt mange år siden! 😁

Found one of my old drawings the other day....from the late 80’s l think…
So so many years ago 😁

The signature on the Russian painting, previously posted, was sadly very damaged.
If anyone out there recognizes the signature or painting style, please let me know 💃

This painting was rolled and brought out of Russia just before the revolution in 1917 and has been in Denmark since.
It has now been treated for all the severe damages because of the transport. Despite that fact it is actually very solid and well done.
The spring light is fantastic and all the details are stunning.
I’m a big fan! 😍

Se lige her! 😍
Jeg elsker at finde gamle originale søm fra 1700 tallet.

Det bliver en meget puritansk restaurering af dette 1700 tals portræt.
Så meget originalt som muligt vil blive bevaret.
Jeg bliver dog nødt til at spænde lærredet lidt op, så denne kant får en bedre lærredskant på, hvorfor disse skønne søm må ud…

I love this! 🤗
Look at the lovely old nails from 1700!

It is going to be a very conservative restoration on this 1700’s painting.
As much original as possible will be saved.
I need to stretch the canvas better, though, therefore the bottom edge will be lined and these nails need to get out…

#1700 a joy

Portrait under the magnifying glass.
Sometimes “spots” just need to be removed with gentle patience 😬

Restaureringsproces på en guldramme til et Oluf Høst maleri.
Det er den klassiske årsag til rammeskader, når snoren bliver mør og slidt og maleriet så falder ned fra væggen.

Restoration process for a Oluf Høst painting.
The classical cause of damage on a frame is when the string becomes worn and it falls down from the wall.

Last week with the Fedorovitch sketches!
…and they really are dancing on the walls 💃💃💃
Still a lot for sale…

Sophie Fedorovitch udstillingen er her november ud - 25. November med.
Sophies kostume designskitser blev lavet i teatersalen, mens prøverne var igang på scenen.
Her ville hun sidde med sine gouacher og lave hurtige skitser, der fangede bevægelser og indtryk. Hun havde en særlig evne til at overføre dansen til sine designs, sådan at de understregede dansens fortælling.
Det er ikke så mærkeligt at Frederick Ashton skabte sine balletter sammen med hende.
Jeg bliver aldrig træt at at se på skitserne her i værkstedet 💃
KOM OG KIG 👀

The Sophie Fedorovitch exibition is still on, ending November 25’th.
Sophie’s costume designs were made in the theatre where she would sit and watch the ballet dancers rehearsals - or the opera singers.
Her design sketches are very vivid and show a great knowledge of movement and how the fabrics worked on the dancers. No wonder Frederick Ashton created his ballets with her at The Royal Ballet.
I never get tired of watching her sketches on my walls 💃
Come by and have a look! 👀

Æbleblomster til at afslutte ugen.
Ukendt kunstner - formentlig dansk.
Dette foto er taget efter den helt store behandling med nye lærredskanter, opspænding på ny blændramme, planering af lærred adskillige gange og rensning for snavs og gammel, gul fernis. Sluttelig genferniseret og rammen restaureret.

Hav en en skøn weekend derude!
🌸🌸🌸

Apple flowers to finish off the week…
Unknown artist - probably Danish.
This photo is after getting the full makeover with lining of edges, putting it on a new stretcher, planning the canvas several times and cleaning it from dirt and old yellow varnish. Finally varnished and frame restored.

Have a lovely weekend out there! 🌸🌸🌸

(Kærligheds)-Historien går… ❤️
Som kunstner levede Sophie Fedorovitch i Paris som ung.
For at leve begyndte hun at køre som taxachauffør om natten og male sin kunst om dagen.
Historien går, at hun en nat fandt en fuld engelsk gentleman, Goodliffe, der lå på gaden og var gået helt ud.
Hun samlede ham op og kørte ham hjem til hans hotel, hvor hun fik ham i seng.
Efterfølgende ledte han efter hende overalt for at takke hende…og fandt hende.
De blev senere elskere ❤️

Udstillingen med Sophies kostumedesigns kan ses på værkstedet til slt november.
Kom glad!

The (love)story goes… ❤️
As an artist Sophie Fedorovitch lived in Paris when she was young.
To make her living she started driving taxi at night as she could only paint during the day.
The story goes that she once found an English gentleman, Goodliffe, drunk and passed out on the street.
She took him up and drove him to his hotel and put him to bed.
Afterwards he looked for her everywhere to thank her…and found her.
Later they became lovers ❤️

På lørdag (fra kl. 11-14) og 8 uger frem vises denne lille udstilling af teaterskitser på mit værksted, som også vil være til salg.
Sophie Fedorovitch blev født i Belarus. Emigrerede til Britain i 1920 hvor hun i 20 år arbejdede sammen med den kendte balletkoreograf Frederick Ashton i 1920’erne og 30’ernes London.
Hun lavede smukke kostumer og scene designs på The Royal Ballet og The Royal Opera.
Jeg kuraterer udstillingen for min ven Anthony, som har arvet skitserne, da hans onkel var Frederick Ashton.
Kom og se udstillingen og køb et stykke teaterhistorie.

On Saturday (from 11.00) and 8 weeks forward the workshop will show this little exibition of theatre sketches for sale.
Sophie Fedorovitch was born in Belarus. Emigrated to Britain in 1920 and worked for 20 years with the famous ballet coreographer Frederick Ashton in the 1920s and 30s London.
She made beautiful costumes and stage designs at the Royal ballet and the Royal Opera.
I’m curating for my friend Anthony who inherited the sketches, as Frederick Ashton was his uncle.
Come and have a look and buy a piece of theatre history.
