JOSEF LADA (1887–1957) Village Green Starting price: 240 000 CZK (9 057 EUR) Hammer price: 350 000 CZK (13 208 EUR) Description dimensions: 29,5 x 60 cm (h x w) period: 1927, Bohemia Although Lada's landscapes cannot be viewed in terms of classic landscape painting, his oeuvre features a distinct period, approximately from 1923, when he did focus on the landscape, investigating the treatment of the horizon line and attempting to capture a sense of depth. He usually returns to the landscape of his native Hrusice, to the picturesque architecture that often includes human or animal figures. As a result, Lada's landscapes often tell a story. This painting is a variation of his painting "On the Village Green", also from 1927. Here the artist maintains his classic planar style with a dominant church tower in the center, a row of houses with gabled façades, and a pond, all of which enliven the details of birds flying in the sky, a goose on the pond, a chicken in front of a gate, and a female figure on the road. Watercolor, gouache and tempera on paper. Signed and dated on bottom left "J. Lada 27".Watercolor, gouache and tempera on paper. Signed and dated on bottom left "J. Lada 27".
