Pal Fried – Old/Nude Female Portraits

Adrian  •  Resources  •  February 25, 2011  •  20 Comments

Pál Fried (16 June 1893, Hungary – 6 March 1976, New York City) is a well-known Hungarian artist of the 20th century whose art is mostly associated with nude female portraits. In Fried’s works one can easily trace the typical features of  the French Impressionist School of Renoir and Degas. Apart from portraits, Freid also painted landscapes, seascapes and views of Paris. After his post-war immigration to the United States, Fried opened a new chapter in his creative life by painting cowboys and typical landscapes of the American West.

Today we would like to introduce you the most impressive part of Fried’s works ‒ his nude female portraits. Painted in one and the same bold loose style, all his portraits bear the touch of individuality of each model. Fried named his paintings after them, which was another non-artistic way to describe a personality: Francine, Carmen, Annabelle ‒ these names burst your imagination and make the paintings even more attractive. Look at these women: they are of different age, nationality, occupation but in each of them Fried managed to discover sensuality and beauty and make them evident for the viewer.

    What is the title of the first portrait?

    Hi, I have a painting that appears identical to the first painting you show “lady in red” (looking back over her shoulder) you show at least one copy in your list. Are these multiple originals or do you think that some of these are copies. Is there someone who can authenticate them (I am thinking for my painting in particular). Thank you. MMR

      I too have that painting, and it certainly looks nearly identical, except for subtle differences. Could he have done any type of oil on canvas reproductions?

    I, too, am wondering about multiple paintings/subtle differences. I have a framed “Reclining Nude”, and have seen several unframed and one exact frame during online searches. Are these copies? I thought not.

    Can anyone tell me who was Barbara?

  8. Curt Jan 28, 6:31 am

    I have four Fried paintings. They are all for sale. There are no nudes, they are small ballet paintings. Is anyone interested? If so I will send pics via email.

      Hi, I have had 4 oval shaped framed young ballerina prints that were in my bedroom during my childhood. I now am restoring the frames a bit, but am wondering about them. I have tracked down the artist as Pal Fried, and one of my pictures is “Willing To Learn”. I would love to find out if the other 3 also have titles. These are only prints, so am not looking for value other than I love them and want them to hang in my new grand daughter’s room. I can send photos of the set, if anyone can answer this.
      Thank you so much for any help.
      Mary Ellen
