Oil on canvas
Bertha Müller was a Dutch artist, born in 1883 and died in 1968. She worked as a painter, draughtswoman, watercolorist, pen-painter and pastellist. Her oeuvre consists mainly of portraits, landscapes, flower still lifes and figure subjects, carried out in an impressionistic, sometimes intimate style.
Müller worked during the first half of the twentieth century and exhibited in the Netherlands. Her work is characterized by refined color handling and a calm, observant approach to her subjects. Especially her pastels and watercolors show a subtle sense of light and atmosphere.
Although Bertha Müller is less well known today than some of her contemporaries, her work is regularly offered at art auctions and is included in the documentation of the RKD – Netherlands Institute for Art History, the main database for Dutch artists.
Her work is representative of a generation of Dutch artists who in the first half of the twentieth century continued a solid, craft-based painting tradition, with particular attention to atmosphere, light and refined technique.
