Watercolor.
Monogrammed (in ligature ) and dated in lower right. With inscription on mount. On light wove paper. 21 x 32.3 cm (8.2 x 12.7 in), the full sheet.

PROVENANCE: Christie's, London, auction on February 14, 1991, lot 14 (with illu.).
Private collection Southern Germany (acquired at Cologne Fine Art & Antiques, March 17 - 26, 1995).

The watercolor, executed in subtly graded colors, shows a truly royal view of the Leeberg pavilion on Tegernsee, site of the congregation of the three kings Maximilian I Joseph of Bavaria, Franz Joseph I of Austria and tsar Alexander I of Russia. Today a memorial stone commemorates the historical event. Back in those days, as well as today, visitors of the pavilion overlook the landscape around the lake with the Wittelsbach summer residence at the former Tegernsee monastery. [FS]
