Additionally with artist's label on verso of frame backing, titled, dated and with further work details. Framed under glass. - Paper slightly wavy due to technique. With traces of glue in places due to collage. Very good overall. Sophisticated work that complements classical portraits with the technique of collage. Like a loving hodgepodge and simultaneous homage to the master Peter Paul Rubens, Cornelia Raeder's work captivates with its humour and multiple layers: in a finely drawn classical manner, she produced drawings after Rubens, depicting his son in various views. Raeder arranged these drawings in a collage style, adding copperplate engravings that flash out in hints. Her work appears to be an artistically documented process that reveals the painter's approach to Peter Paul Rubens. - Raeder received her training at the Deutsche Meisterschule für Mode in Munich, but turned her attention to painting. She was fascinated by the constant dialogue with tradition and classical art history. She has participated in exhibitions at the Galerie Beck, Augsburg, the Kunstverein Regensburg and the Ulm Museum.
