    May. 17, 2013

    Volkers, Karl 1868 Düsseldorf - 1944 Fischenich

    Est: €2,000 - €2,400

    Volkers, Karl 1868 Düsseldorf - 1944 Fischenich Horse Racing at the Düsseldorf Lausward Meadows (?). Signed and dated lower right: Karl Volkers 1892. Oil on canvas. Relined. 49,5 x 94cm. In 1891 the Lausward-Meadows was held on the Rhine at the Grand Prix Dusseldorf for the first time, and started the traditional horse race. Thus it became an integral venue established in the mid 19th century. It was then held at different venues and was a very popular equestrian event. The temporal closeness of the present work of the Düsseldorf artist creates a connection to the venue of the meadows near Lausward. Volkers, Karl 1868 Düsseldorf - 1944 Fischenich Pferderennen auf den Düsseldorfer Lausward-Wiesen (?). Signiert und datiert unten rechts: Karl Volkers 1892. Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 49,5 x 94cm. 1891 wird auf den Lausward-Wiesen am Rhein mit dem Großen Preis von Düsseldorf erstmals Mal das traditionsreiche Pferderennen gestartet. Damit wurde ein fester Austragungsort etabliert für die schon seit Mitte des 19.Jh. an unterschiedlichen Austragungsorten durchgeführten und sehr populären Reitveranstaltungen. Die zeitliche Nähe der vorliegenden Arbeit des Düsseldorfer Künstlers legt eine Verbindung zum Austragungsort der Lausward-Wiesen nahe.
