Leo Putz was a Tyrolean painter whose work ranged from Art Nouveau and Impressionism to the beginnings of Expressionism with figures, nudes and landscapes predominant subjects. He also was an opponent of National Socialism in Germany where Putz' artwork was labeled "Degenerate Art" (Entartete Kunst). Beginning in 1936, he was repeatedly interrogated by the Gestapo and was forced to flee back to his native region, the South Tyrol. In 1937, he was officially banned from working in Germany before passing away in 1940 in Italy. A decade earlier, he went to Brazil in 1929, where he stayed for four years and painted this portrait of a young local woman he called “Olympia” from Rio de Janeiro. He had traveled with his family for a short visit to see relatives, but ended up staying. The light and intensity of the country’s colors, along with its lush tropical vegetation, captivated him instantly and noticeably influenced his painting. “Everything is always so soft and gentle, so balanced, that there are only transitions—a quarter-tone scale of immense range—without rigid whole-tone or chord contrasts,” he said after a first impression that was “intoxicating.” In Rio, instead of blues and greens, his palette was enriched with reds, oranges, and deep greens. His experiences with the natural lives of the indigenous people further inspired him, although it took time to gain the trust of the local community. For the portrait of a young “Olympia,” Putz created a cardboard sketch as early as September 1929. By 1932, when he was already holding successful exhibitions, he transformed the sketch into a refined masterpiece. The rhythmic interplay of colors, with flowing transitions and gentle modeling, harmoniously combine with the girl’s self-assurance in her expression and posture. She has straight dark hair, a light-tan complexion, and wears a light-yellow top. Her gaze is directed slightly to the our right while our attention is focused directly on her.

Are there any #genealogy friends with Trentini/Northern Italian ancestry? My paternal family can be traced to the mid-1200's in the Val di Non region of the Italian Alps, about an hour southwest of where #Otzi the famous Iceman was found. #Tyrolean #ItalianGenealogy #Trentino #Trentini #Castelfondo
