        1806 Lithograph Portrait of Carl Linnaeus, Pioneering Swedish Botanist and Father of Taxonomy

        Est: $300 - $400

        Carl Linnaeus London, ca. 1806 1806 Lithograph Portrait of Carl Linnaeus, Pioneering Swedish Botanist and Father of Taxonomy Poster A handsome lithograph engraving measuring 15" x 25", published by Robert Thornton, London, May 1, 1806. Moderate foxing at margins, less so at middle, else very good. This print features an oval portrait of Linnaeus, surrounded by garlands and supported by three putti and an angel. The text at bottom reads: "Carolus Linnaeus, Knight of the Polar Star, First Physician to the King, Professor of Botany in the University at Upsal, &c &c. From the Original Picture in the Possession of Aylmer Bourke Lambert Esq. Vice President of the Linnaean Society." Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) attended Uppsala University as a student before teaching there after 1730, then appointed rector at the university after two decades of teaching, conducting original field research, and producing a number of influential publications. He also became the chair of botany at Uppsala. Linnaeus's outdoor classes were extremely popular and he had an easy rapport with his adoring students. Uppsala University, located in the eponymous city located some 70 km northwest of Stockholm, is Sweden's oldest university, established in 1477. Linnaeus's greatest contribution to science was developing a classification system for animals, plants, and minerals; his 1735 Systema Naturae introduced its principal ideas. Linnaeus is thus known as the "father of modern taxonomy." This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.

        Zimmer, Hans Peter: Under the Lemon Tree

        Est: €8,000 - €10,000

        "Under the Lemon Tree" Acryl auf Leinwand. 1986. 135,5 x 115 cm. Oben links mit Pinsel in Schwarz signiert "HPZimmer", datiert und betitelt, verso nochmals signiert, datiert und betitelt. Wie die Hesperiden stehen die drei Nymphen vor dem strahlenden Gelb des Zitronenbaumes. Bei Carl von Linné (1707-1778) dient der Begriff Hesperiden zur Bezeichnung der Zitrusfrüchte. Dabei orientierte sich Linné an dem italienischen Botaniker Giovanni Baptista Ferrarius, der bereits 1646 in seinem Werk von den goldenen Früchten der Hesperiden spricht. So fühlten sich wohl beide Gelehrte beim Anblick der goldenen Schalen an die mythologischen Quellen erinnert und wiesen den Zitrusfrüchten die Bezeichnung Hesperides zu. Weit entfernt jedoch von idealer Körperschönheit der Antike sind die drei weiblichen Akte mit ihren fratzenhaften Gesichtern und den karikaturhaft deformierten Proportionen. In seiner Reihe von Baum-Bildern spielt HP Zimmer mit verschiedenen künstlerischen Traditionen. "Alle Mythen sind schon vorformuliert, wie in einer Modenschau gleiten die Kostümierungen an mir vorbei. Adam und Eva, das Narrenschiff von Bosch, die Totentänze von Notke in Lübeck und Reval. In diesem Supermarkt kann man sich bedienen, und man findet auch immer ein Stück Eulenspiegelei, bösartige Ironie, versteckte Zeitkritik, politische Anspielungen." (HP Zimmer, in: Künstler. Kritisches Lexikon der Gegenwart, München 1994, S. 15). 1958 formierte der Künstler gemeinsam mit den Malern Helmut Sturm und Heimrad Prem sowie dem Bildhauer Lothar Fischer in München die Gruppe SPUR. Auf Reisen durch Italien in den 1960er Jahren machte HP Zimmer die Bekanntschaft mit Enrico Baj, Jean Dubuffet, Emilio Vedova und Graham Sutherland. 1967 zog der Künstler sich aus allen Gruppen zurück und malte ein ganzes Jahr lang überhaupt nicht. Er gründete 1986, als unser Gemälde entstand, das Institut für Dämonologische Ästhetik in Braunschweig. Unser "Lemon Tree" ist ein hervorragendes Beispiel für HP Zimmers Malerei der 1980er Jahre. - Provenienz: Nachlass des Künstlers Ketterer München, Auktion 02.06.2006, Lot 174 Privatsammlung Europa - Ausstellung: HP Zimmer.

        Carl Linnaeus & Muller - 10 Original Bird Watercolors

        Est: $500 - $1,000

        This is a wonderful, expertly drawn, original watercolor is from a German ornithological manuscript. Each watercolor is on chain-linked, watermarked paper. The work was completed in 1806 and entitled Vogel in Beschreibungen und Abbildungen nach dem XII. vollstandigen Natur-system des Ritters Carl von Linne und nach der ausfuhrlichen Erklarung des Herrn Prof. Phil. Ludw. Statius Muller. This roughly translates to Birds in descriptions & illustrations after the natural system of Carl Linnaeus as translated by Philipp Muller. The manuscript was likley privately compiled. The text containts excerpts from Linnaeus's Systema naturae as translated by Muller. Many of the images were influenced or drawn after the work of Buffon, Edwards, Seligmann, Bertuch, Borowski, and Aldrovandi. Each page often has the species name in German and Latin as well as the original artist's names. The images drawn from nature are often dated and read between 1771 and 1806 and likely based on the original drawings by the artist or compiler of the manuscript.
