Ernst JOSEPHSON
1851–1906, Sweden
Also known as: EJN, EJ
Oil on canvas, musical figurines, signed "Ernst Josephsson 1879." 36x51 cm. Part of a large seizure of counterfeit art from the 1980s. The painting's lower left corner was the victim of inept washing with a strong medium. Subsequently, the signature Ernst Josephsson påmålats. The painting gives the impression of being a genuine Ernst Joseph's son, but it is not done in his style but more in the style that was common at the turn of the century, 1890-1910. It's too "wet" painted with too much color. The district court's assessment: The painting is not done or signed by Ernst Josephson. It is a forgery.
Oil on canvas, 69x57 cm. The painting is signed Ernst Josephson and provided with certificates of authenticity on the back of Gustav Jaensson. The signature in the lower left corner is painted afterwards and is located outside of the painting. The varnish is washed away under the signature. Frenchman Bonnard had a painting school in Paris where many Swedes came and learned the nude painting, the painting should be painted around 1860-1870 by someone less talented student of Bonnard. This painting is too amateurish to be conducted by Ernst Josephson. Conservator Gustav Jaensson denies that he signed certificate of authenticity on the back of the painting. The District Court's assessment: The painting is a ”spurious” forgery. Ernst Josephson has not been painted or signed it.
