The snowy winter landscapes became his typical theme and he called himself «Schneemoler (snowpainter)». 1917 he received his professorship by Grand Duke Friedrich II.

Boldini, Giovanni attr.
1842 Ferrara - 1931 Paris.
Öl/Holz. Porträt der Cléo de Mérode. Halbfigurenbild der berühmten Tänzerin in eleganter Pose in einem Sessel. U.l. sign. Verso Reste alter Bez. H. 28,
Boldini, der an der Florentiner Akademie studierte, hatte bald beachtliche Erfolge als Porträtmaler der Schönen und Reichen Italiens. Reisen nach London und Paris, wo er sich schließlich auch niederließ, verbreiteten seinen Ruhm in Europa. Der Eleganz und Dynamik seines Stils verdankte er seinen Aufstieg zum gefragtesten Porträtmaler der Belle Epoque.
Cléo de Mérode war eine der berühmtesten und erfolgreichsten Ballerinen ihrer Zeit. Neben Boldini stand sie auch Künstlern wie Edgar Degas, Friedrich August von Kaulbach und Franz von Lenbach Modell. Mit dem bewegten Hintergrund, dem lässigen Kleid und der eleganten Geste gelingt Boldini eine treffende Charakterisierung der mondänen Tänzerin.
