unnamed, L. Kohn, 4" x 9", oil on canvas
This is an ebay find. The seller claimed it was the work of Ludwig Kohn and that they had found two images of paintings with identical signatures in old auction catalogues. That may or may not be true, but I was fairly easily able to locate an example of a work by Ludwig Kohn on the Internet and the style and signature did not resemble the work of this artist. Ludwig Kohn seems to have signed with his full first name, not the initial "L". That being said I like this artist's work. I suspect he or she worked in Europe, possibly in France. I found another work by an L. Kohn that reminds me of this artist's style and the signatures are very similar, too. Several folks have contacted me who also have works by this artist. Any information about this artist would be appreciated.
I'm thrilled you started this blog. I, too, have a painting by L. Kohn.....purchased at a garage sale for the HIGH price of $.25!!!!! I love it. It's approx. 4x5" in an ugly frame. If you'd like a picture, contact me at dsdashersmom at g.mail. :)
ReplyDeleteI have an L Kohn too. Mine looks like it is from France or someplace like that. I have seen some of his work that has sold for over $300, but most are in the $200 to $250 range. I still know nothing about this artist, except they are good, whoever they are. Feel free to write me back at costcose@gmail.com if you find out more about L Kohn. Thanks!

I have a small painting by this artist too. The painting was purchased at the Charles Z. Mann Gallery in New York, NY, the date unknown. On the back of the framed canvas, it says "This Certifies this original oil painting was created by a member of GUILD OF MASTER ARTISTS . .
ReplyDeleteI have a small still life, a bowl with lemons limes and oranges cascading out
ReplyDeleteI have a beautiful 'beach scene' by L. Kohn that was given to me by my Granny. The oil painting doesn't like the same style of the 2 posted on the kwqd website but the signature is the same. I'm not sure where my Granny obtained the painting from - she was from the UK and I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I you'd like to see my painting, I'd be happy to email it to you. I am curious if anyone else thinks it's the same L. Kohn. I can be reached at ymbeavington@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI too have a L. Kohn painting of a bowl of fruit. It is a big painting. I received it from my aunt over 15 years ago. I am running into dead ends trying to figure out who he/she was. Ludwig Kohn??? or someone else. Any information would be grand.

DeleteI recently bought an L. Kohn painting in Northern NJ for $15. It is a painting of daisies and measures 20" x 24". Too bad I cannot attach a photo. It is very nice.
