      • Conrad Paul (traceable 1525-1547 Lauingen) - Christ on the Mount of Olives
        Sep. 24, 2020

        Conrad Paul (traceable 1525-1547 Lauingen) - Christ on the Mount of Olives

        Est: €12,000 - €15,000

        The apostles asleep in the foreground, Judas with the soldiers approaching in the background. Monogram \CP\" (ligated) lower right. Two customs stamps verso. Oil on panel. 61 x 50,5 cm. Parquetted. Restored. Minor damage to frame. \"The spirit is indeed willing, but the flesh is weak\". The events in the Garden of Gethsemane, at the foot of the Mount of Olives, as described by the evangelist Matthew (Matth. 26, 36-47) is a theme from the Passion of Christ that recurrs frequently throughout art history. This passage from the bible also features two quotes that have found their way into the German vernacular. In addition to the aforementioned statement, his desperate plea to God, as he considers his imminent fate, is also still used today, \"My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.\". The artist Conrad Paul, born around 1490/1500, can be traced back to the second quarter of the 16th Century working in Lauingen an der Donau. It can be assumed that he was a student of Hans Schäufelin (circa 1482/83 Upper Rhine - 1539/40, Nördlingen). Schäufelin's success was based above all on his personal and artistic proximity to Albrecht Dürer. Dürer was a significant inspiration for Schäufelin as an artist, and was therefore also a important influence for his pupils, who continued to develop the ideas of the famous Nuremberg artist in an individual and inspired way. Similarities to Dürer's corresponing woodcut from his Large Passion series (1511) can also be found in the overall composition of the present painting. Ludwig Meyer compares the present painting stylistically with three panels by Hans Schäufelin, which were made around 1520. The three paintings depicting hermits, originally from the Maria Maihingen Abbey, were acquired in 1828 by King Ludwig I of Bavaria, and are now in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum of Nuremberg (inventory numbers Gm 294, 1106 and 1107). The present painting is one of only two known works of Conrad Paul which bear his monogram and as such can be attributed to him with absolute certainty. Ludwig Meyer dates it to 1520-25. Cf. Rott, Hans, Quellen und Forschungen zur südwestdeutschen und schweizerischen Kunstgeschichte im XV. und XVI. Jahrhundert. - II. Alt-Schwaben und die Reichsstädte.

        Est: $100 - $200

        (1924 - 2010) American political cartoonist and winner of three Pulitzer Prizes.

Original signed ink political cartoon for the Los Angeles Times, 1983, 10" x 12 1/2", likely published, shows candidate Jimmy Carter devolving into a "cave man" as he struggles to obtain votes from the right. Fine. SOLD WITH a similar original ink cartoon from fellow cartoonist JERRY HOLBERT of the Boston Herald, 12" x 9", 1987 and likely published, shows candidate Michael Dukakis riding in a hearse labeled with the names of three other failed presidential candidates. His driver is Paul Tully, political director of the Democratic National Committee who oversaw the candidacies. He exclaims: "SIT BACK AND RELAX, MR. DUKAKIS. I'M EXPERIENCED AT THESE CAMPAIGN DRIVES!" Two pieces, fine.
