    • KÖLLA, JOHANNES(1740 Stäfa 1778)
      Sep. 18, 2015

      KÖLLA, JOHANNES(1740 Stäfa 1778)

      Est: CHF7,000 - CHF10,000

      KÖLLA, JOHANNES (1740 Stäfa 1778) Drei Porträts, wohl aus der Familie Pestalozzi. Öl auf Holz. Zwei verso unten rechts signiert: Cölla. fec. Je 18,5 x 13,9 cm. Provenienz: - Galerie Lord's, Zürich, 1987. - Schweizer Privatsammlung. Diese Gruppe von drei Porträts sind im Schweizerischen Institut für Kunstwissenschaft (SIK) unter den Inventarnummern 59992, 59993 und 59994 registriert. Der aus Stäfa stammende Maler Johannes Kölla war ein talentierter Zeichner und lernte zuerst den Beruf des Formschneiders, worin er vor allem Blumenmuster für die einheimische Baumwollindustrie entwarf. Mit etwa 19 bildete er sich bei Johann Kaspar Füssli d. Ä. (1706-1782) in Zürich zum Maler weiter. Dabei war Füssli von seinen Genreszenen und Nachtstücken so begeistert, dass er Köllas Mäzen wurde. Beim Entwurf ländlicher Szenen dienten Kölla die Natur und die Niederländer des 17. Jahrhunderts als Vorbild. Erst später malte er auch Bildnisse. Die wenigen überlieferten Zeichnungen und Gemälde lassen vermuten, dass er in dieser Gattung seine künstlerischen Kräfte am besten entfalten konnte, wofür die drei hier angebotenen Porträts beispielhaft sind. KÖLLA, JOHANNES (1740 Stäfa 1778) Three portraits, probably of the Pestalozzi family. Oil on panel. Two of them signed lower right on the verso: Cölla. fec. 18.5 x 13.9 cm each. Provenance: - Galerie Lord's, Zurich, 1987. - Swiss private collection. The present group of three portraits are registered in the Schweizerischen Institut für Kunstwissenschaft (SIK) under inventory numbers 59992, 59993 and 59994.
