Lower right signed Las. - Expertise: Authentication: Anna-Carola Krausse, February 2024 - Provenance: Private collection Sweden; private collection Munich - German-Swedish portrait, figure and landscape painter. She received her first painting lessons at her aunt Elsa Birnbaum's painting school in Danzig. She then studied from 1921-1927 at the State School of Fine and Applied Arts in Berlin under E. Wolfsfeld; women were only admitted to art academies as students in 1919. L. established herself as a portrait painter in Berlin, but found herself subject to considerable restrictions in the practice of her profession immediately after the National Socialists came to power. Portrait commissions increasingly dried up, which she tried to compensate for by taking private painting lessons. She was forced to close her painting school in 1935 and made the life-saving decision to emigrate to Sweden in 1937. There she worked as an artist for the rest of her life, primarily as a sought-after portrait painter. In 1987, she was honored for the first time in London and then repeatedly in Germany and Sweden with retrospectives. Mus.: Berlin (Nat. Gall.) a. others. Lit.: Vollmer, A.-C. Krausse: L. L., Leben u. Werk, cat. rais., 2006.
