Oil on canvas1945 Legat Carl Moll40090Carl Moll (1861–1945) was fifty-two when Kokoschka painted this portrait. He looks relaxed sitting in his chair with an alert and interested gaze. Although his pose is calm, the lively brushwork gives him an energetic quality. The easel on the left alludes to Moll’s profession while his elegant suit reflects a successful career. As a painter and organizer of exhibitions, Moll features prominently in the “Who’s Who” of fin-de-siècle Vienna. In 1897 he co-founded the Vienna Secession. One year before painting this portrait, Kokoschka had met Moll’s stepdaughter Alma Mahler. The artist fell madly and obsessively in love with her, a passion that also fueled a surge in creativity.Painting106621422803image/jpegIn CopyrightFoto: Johannes Stoll / Belvedere, Wienhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/128256/fullhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-2803/manifest
