Description: ‘Une Affection Tacite’ by Adèle Kindt (1804-1893).The painting – which depicts a young woman and her ardent admirer – is signed by the artist and dated 1862.Born into a family of artists, Marie-Adélaïde Kindt was a pupil of the great French neoclassical painter Jacques-Louis David (1748-1825) before entering the studio of Sophie Rude (1797-1867) and subsequently the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels where she studied under François-Joseph Navez (1787-1869). Kindt’s history paintings and portraiture are very much in the style of Nevez in particular and exemplify both his Franco-Belgian Academicism and Bonapartist sympathies. Kindt’s subsequent subject pictures are far more Romantic, as evidenced in the current work being offered here. Between 1825 and 1879, Adèle Kindt exhibited at all the major Belgian and Dutch Salons, and today her paintings are to be found in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Brussels City Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts in Ghent, the Mauritshuis in The Hague, and the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp.Academy Fine Paintings only offers artwork for sale in the finest condition it can be for its age.
