Suzanne Eisendieck (1908-1998) was a prominent and widely admired figure painter who gained international recognition after her first exhibition in Paris in 1929. Walter Klinkhoff was an admirer of her work and occasionally visited her in her Paris home on Rue Bonaparte on Paris’ Left Bank.
Originally from Danzig, she moved to Paris in the late 1920s, quickly becoming part of its
vibrant art scene. There, she met her husband, the painter Dietz Edzard. Both shared similar backgrounds and became central figures in the Parisian art world.
Her work is known for its individuality, radiant color, and distinctive style, so unique that her paintings are instantly recognizable. Eisendieck specialized in figure painting, often portraying elegant women and children in a formal interior or coastal settings. The ballet, opera, music and theatre also provided her with a wealth of inspiration. Married to an important artist of the period, Dietz Edzard, one of their daughters, Angélique, often served as one of their models. Eisendieck’s palette also resulted in glorious still lifes of flowers. She masterfully captured light and atmosphere.
Her works were highly sought after by collectors in Europe, but primarily in the United States.
Stylistically, her paintings align closely with the Impressionists, but with a modern touch and a personal charm that includes quaintness and piquant beauty. Her work combines technical finesse, sensitivity, and refinement, making her stand out among contemporary painters.
Eisendieck paintings were sold by distinguished art galleries in France (Galerie Zak, Galerie Benezit, and Galerie Petrides), the UK (Leicester Galleries, O'Hana Gallery, and Adams Gallery), the United States (Findlay Galleries, Perls Galleries, Marie Harriman Gallery, and Gallery Vigeveno), and in Canada by Dominion Gallery and Walter Klinkhoff Gallery.
