Oil on cardboard
Estimate:
€ 40,000 - 60,000
$ 43,600 - 65,400
Fischende Kinder. 1865-1870.
Oil on cardboard.
Signed with initials lower left. With a confirmation of authenticity by Eugen Spitzweg dated February 10, 1913, pasted on the reverse, as well as with a label indicating ownership and other numbered and inscribed labels. 30 x 37.5 cm (11.8 x 14.7 in).
• A gorgeous little idyll of pre-impressionist airiness.
• A coloristically profound landscape that reveals Spitzweg's knowledge of the “paysage intime” of the French School of Barbizon.
• Spitzweg's love of theater and opera becomes evident in the stage-like view and the artful lighting typical of all his works.
• Spitzweg's paintings are part of the most important German collections of 19th Century Art, including the Neue Pinakothek, Munich (“The Poor Poet”, 1839), the Alte Nationalgalerie, Berlin, and the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen, Dresden.
We are grateful to Mr. Detlef Rosenberger, who examined the original work, for his kind support in cataloging this lot.
