    Adolph von Menzel (Breslau 1815 - Berlin 1905). Letter to Franz von Lenbach.

    Est: -

    Ca. 1876. Collotype. 20 x 12,5 cm. Inscribed and monogr. AM, matted and framed under glass, uninspected out of frame. - M. is the most important German realist painter of the 19th cent. He was trained in the lithographic workshop of his father, a business he took over at the age of 16 when his father died; he didn't continue a short study at the Berlin academy in 1833. M. had his artistic breakthrough in 1842 with a cycle of illustrations for F. Th. Kuglers 'Geschichte Friedrichs des Großen' (Story of Frederick the Great) and became one of the most sought-after artists of his time. Among his numerous honours was the Order of the Black Eagle and his ennoblement in 1898. In 1867 he exhibited at the Paris World's Fair, also in Paris was shown a retrospective of his works in 1885 on the occasion of his 70th birthday. By order of emperor Wilhelm II. he was given a state funeral. M.'s fame as a realist is based on the precise and virtuosic depiction of past and contemporary incidents. Besides paintings from the life of Frederick the Great which made M. known as the painter of Old Prussia he is mostly renowned for scenes from the every-day life of the most different people and situations like noble balls, beer gardens or factories; the 'Iron Rolling Mill' is the most famous among them. The image sections of his paintings, often seemingly chosen haphazardly as well as the persons not interacting illustrate the lack of relationship of metropolitan life. Some of his paintings anticipating impressionism and even abstraction contribute to his importance as a most important protagonist of artistic innovation in Germany. Mus.: Berlin (Nat.-Gal.), Hamburg (Kunsthalle), Dresden, München, Köln, Wien a. others. Lit.: Thieme-Becker, Bénézit, Schmidt: A. M. - Zeichnungen, Busch: A. M. - Leben udn Werk a. others.

    Est: €1,500 - €1,800

    Erinnerungskizzen entliehener Zeichnungen Zimmermannsbleistift auf Velin, aufgezogen. 20 x 12,2 cm. Mit zahlreichen eigenhändigen Bezeichnungen in Bleistift, u.a. am Oberrand "1 zerbr: Krug 1 Scene.", die Skizzen nummeriert, rechts unten "für 'Art-Journal' / London zur / Regar[...]dention / übergeben / 3 Octobr / [18]81" sowie "Zurückgekommen / 1882". Wenn Adolph Menzel Originalzeichnungen aus den Händen gab, fertigte er als visuelle Gedächtnisstütze Skizzen der verliehenen Arbeiten. Ein typisches Beispiel hierfür ist vorliegendes Blatt, auf dem eine Serie von Zeichnungen knapp notiert ist, die er laut eigener Annotation im Oktober 1881 an das Art-Journal nach London sandte und im darauffolgenden Jahr zurückerhielt. Das Art-Journal, eines der einflussreichsten Kunstblätter im viktorianischen England, veröffentlichte in der Ausgabe vom Juli 1882 eine überschwängliche Besprechung der Zeichenkunst Menzels. Abgedruckt wurden ein Porträt Bismarcks in halber Figur (auf unserem Blatt die Nr. 5) sowie eine Auswahl seiner 1877 gefertigten Illustrationen für die Jubiläumsausgabe von Heinrich von Kleists "Der zerbrochene Krug" (unter Nr. 1). - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.

    Menzel, Adolph von: Vorstudie zu Nach Schluss des Hoffestes

    Est: €6,000 - €9,000

    Vorstudie zu Nach Schluss des Hoffestes: Offizier mit seiner Pickelhaube in einem Armlehnensessel sitzend. Zimmermannsbleistift auf Velin. 19,8 x 14,7 cm. Unten mittig monogrammiert und datiert "AM / [18]89". Das Gemälde "Nach Schluss des Hoffestes" (1889, heute Galerie Schloss Rogalin, Poznan), zu dem diese Studie zugehörig ist, zeigt eine Schar aufbrechender Gäste nach einem Fest. Sind die einen bereits im Aufbruch begriffen, scheint der Offizier rechts im Hintergrund nicht ans Gehen zu denken. Er sitzt in einem Armlehnenstuhl, auf dem er leicht nach links geneigt noch mit seinem Gegenüber im Gespräch vertieft ist. Seinen Helm mit Federbusch hält er abgestellt auf der Lehne in seiner linken, wohingegen seine rechte Hand auf dem Knauf des Stuhls ruht. Menzel nimmt seine rechte Hand auf dem kleinen Skizzenbuchblatt noch einmal separat auf um sie detaillierter und vergrößerter auszuführen. „Menzels zeichnerischer Spätstil zeigt sich hier sehr schön und charakteristisch in den vehementen Strichen des Zimmermannbleistiftes, den er seit den 70er Jahren durch die Arbeit am Gemälde Eisenwalzwerk gern benutzte. Scharf mit der schmalen Kante des Stiftes leicht gekratzte Linien stehen neben weichen, wie gewischt wirkenden. Vermutlich läßt dieser souveräne Duktus der Zeichnung darauf schließen, daß es sich nicht um eine Modellstudie, sondern um einen rasch während eines Hoffestes festgehaltenen Augenblick handelt, der dann Eingang in die Komposition des Gemäldes gefunden hat“ (zit. aus dem Gutachten von Dr. Ursula Riemann-Reyher vom 23. September 2015, im Original vorliegend). - Provenienz: Aus der Sammlung Paul Davidsohn (Lugt 654). - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.
