Der Maler im Atelier, Um 1860.
Oil on cardboard
Estimate:
€ 20,000 - 30,000
$ 21,400 - 32,100
Der Maler im Atelier. Um 1860.
Oil on cardboard.
With the facsimile monogram, various handwritten inscriptions and notes of ownership, numbers, fragmentarily preserved labels and stamps of the art supply company Schachinger & Herrmann, Munich, on the reverse. 23.5 x 18.6 cm (9.2 x 7.3 in).
• Rare motif: one of only four known portrait painter variations, one of which is in the most important Spitzweg collection, the Schäfer Collection, Schweinfurt.
• Unique presentation: the only portrait-format version makes the yawning model's face visible.
• As is the case with his famous “Armer Poet”, Spitzweg formulates an ironic commentary on artistic creation.
We are grateful to Mr. Detlef Rosenberger, who examined the original work, for his kind support in cataloging this lot.
PROVENANCE: Eugen Spitzweg, nephew of the artist (with the note "Facsimile Monogramm hinzugefügt vom Neffen des Künstlers / Eugen Spitzweg / München" on the reverse).
