Horst Janssen:
Horst Janssen, born 1929 in Hamburg and died 1995, was a prominent German draftsman and graphic artist, whose works are marked by exceptional technical virtuosity and an intense, often somber engagement with themes such as transience, death, and self-reflection. Janssen belongs to the most important German artists of the 20th century, and his works show clear influences from masters such as Albrecht Dürer and Francisco de Goya. Just as Dürer used copper engravings and Goya used his “Los Caprichos,” Janssen employed graphic printmaking to depict complex, often disturbing scenarios that delve deeply into the human psyche.
A central theme in Janssen’s work is obsessive self-observation, bringing him close to Egon Schiele and Francis Bacon. Schiele, known for his merciless self-portraits, and Bacon, who often presented the human figure as a distorted and suffering being, shared with Janssen an interest in exploring the inner self. Janssen’s self-portraits, frequently realized in etchings or drawings, convey a similar intensity and openness and address the fragility and transience of human life in a deeply personal way.
Janssen’s study of nature and his engagement with the natural world take place in a melancholic and often morbid context reminiscent of Odilon Redon. Redon, a Symbolist who explored the dark and mysterious sides of nature and the human psyche, influenced Janssen in his portrayal of the uncanny and abyssal that lurks behind the visible world. Janssen’s works, like Redon’s, reflect a fascination with what lies beyond the obvious, and show a deep engagement with nature as a symbol of human feelings and fears.
Horst Janssen remains a unique artist who integrated influences from Dürer, Goya, Schiele, Bacon, and Redon into a powerful and personal visual language. His works are an intense exploration of human existence and show the inexhaustible possibilities of graphic art. Janssen’s oeuvre, characterized by technical mastery and deep substantive commitment, leaves a lasting legacy in art history that illuminates both the abysses and the beauty and transience of life.

Seller's Story
We have been operating several online shops in the art trade for over 20 years. On the one hand, we specialize in rare art prints, exhibition posters and collectible reproductions, and on the other hand, we trade in art editions and originals by well-known contemporary artists.
The works we offer all come from the respective publishers, art galleries and institutions such as museums that published them in close cooperation with the artists. The works you find with us are often several decades old, in perfect or good condition and without a previous private owner.
We place particular emphasis on professional packaging. Nothing is more annoying than purchasing a rare print that arrives damaged due to poor or inadequate packaging.
If you have any questions about the works on offer, we are always happy to help you!
