Friedrich von Amerling 1803 Wien - 1887 ebenda Bildnis eines Mädchens. 1839. Öl auf Leinwand. Rechts unten mit eingeritzter Signatur und datiert. Verso auf dem Keilrahmen mit altem handschriftlich bezeichnetem Etikett sowie nummeriert '2734'. 45,5 x 38 cm (17,9 x 14,9 in). • Amerling ist neben Waldmüller einer der technisch virtuosesten Porträtisten der Wiener Gesellschaft. • Seine Darstellungen und Typen sind prägend für eine romantisch-biedermeierliche Schönheitengalerie. • Bildnisse aus seiner Hand befinden sich in den Bayerischen Staatsgemäldesammlungen, München, dem Belvedere und dem Kunsthistorischen Museum, Wien sowie der Alten Nationalgalerie, Berlin. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Wien/USA (seit mindestens drei Generationen in Familienbesitz). Neben Ferdinand von Waldmüller gehört Friedrich von Amerling zu den bedeutendsten Porträtmalern des Habsburgischen Österreichischen Kaiserreichs. Seine Ausbildung beginnt er 1815 an der Akademie der Künste in Wien, anschließend folgen einige Jahre an der Akademie in Prag. Künstlerische Bildungsreisen führen ihn nach London, Paris und Rom, während derer er sich mit der Kunst bedeutender schulprägender Meister wie Thomas Lawrence oder Horace Vernet auseinandersetzt, als auch mit dem für das malerische Curriculum unerlässlichen Antikenstudium, Diese ausgedehnte Reisetätigkeit führt ihn im Laufe seines Lebens außerdem nach Spanien, erneut nach England, nach Griechenland, Skandinavien bis ans Nordkap und schließlich 1886 nach Ägypten und Palästina. Kurz vor der Entstehung unseres Bildnisses reist er nach Italien, in die Niederlande und 1839 nach München. Zu dieser Zeit ist er bereits einer der gefragtesten Porträtisten des Großbürgertums und des Hochadels, zu seinen bedeutendsten Werken gehört das Porträt von Franz I. im Kaiserornat (1821, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Wien), das durch die ungewöhnlich lebensnahe Pose und die präzise modellierte Stofflichkeit der Gewandung und der juwelengeschmückten Reichsinsignien einzigartigen Stellenwert im Œuvre besitzt. Das bis dato teuerste versteigerte Gemälde aus seiner Hand, 'Mädchen mit Strohhut' (1835, The Princely collection, Liechtenstein, Vaduz/Wien), zählt jedoch zu den Bildnissen schöner Unbekannter. Für solche Bildnisse stehen ihm oft Schönheiten aus Musik und Theater Modell, die ihm für Typenporträts wie die Morgenländerin oder 'Lautenspielerin' ihr Gesicht leihen (1828, Belvedere, Wien). Von der gleichen technischen Raffinesse in den Details wie den glänzenden Seidenbändern, den zarten Rosen im geflochtenen Haar, dem transparent schimmernden Porzellanteint und den rosigen Wangen bis zum dunkelrot samtenen Kleid mit dem puffigen Fellkragen ist das Bildnis dieses jungen Mädchens, dessen Physiognomie ganz der unschuldigen Lieblichkeit des von Amerling bevorzugten Frauentypus entspricht. Vor dem dunkel gehaltenen Hintergrund verstärkt sich der Effekt der akribisch geschilderten Stofflichkeit und der Lichteffekte, mit denen Amerling hier den Idealtypus einer naiv-unberührten, mit romantisch-verklärtem, leicht abwesenden Blick dargestellten jungen Schönheit entwirft.

Oil on canvas. With the scratched signature and the date in lower right. Verso of the stretcher with an old label with inscription and the number '2734'. 45.5 x 38 cm (17.9 x 14.9 in). • Next to Waldmüller, Amerling was one of the most virtuoso portraitists of the Viennese society. • His depictions were formative for the romatic ideal of beauty typical of the Biedermeier era • His portraits are in the Bavarian State Painting Collections, Munich, the Belvedere and the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna and the Alte Nationalgalerie, Berlin. PROVENANCE: Private collection Vienna/USA (family-owned for at least three generations). Together with Ferdinand von Waldmüller, Friedrich von Amerling is one of the most eminent portrait painters of the Austrian Hapsburg Empire. Beginning his education in 1815 at the Academy of Arts in Vienna, he subsequently spent several years at the Academy in Prague. His educational journeys took him to London, Paris and Rome, where he studied the art of prominent masters of the school, such as Thomas Lawrence and Horace Vernet, as well as studying the ancient world, which was an essential part of the artistic curriculum at the time. In the course of his life, his extensive travels also took him to Spain, England, Greece, Scandinavia, the North Cape and eventually, in 1886, to Egypt and Palestine. Shortly before he created the portrait on offer here, von Amerling traveled to Italy, the Netherlands and, in 1839, to Munich. At this time, he was already one of the most sought-after portraitists for the upper middle classes and the high nobility; one of his greatest works is the portrait of Franz I in imperial regalia (1821, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna), which occupies a unique place in his oeuvre thanks to the subject’s unusually lifelike pose and the accurately rendered materiality of the robe and the jewelry-adorned imperial insignia. “Girl with Straw Hat” (1835, The Princely Collection, Liechtenstein, Vaduz/Vienna), the most expensive von Amerling painting sold at auction to date, is among the portraits of unknown beauties. Beautiful women from the world of music and theater, who lent him their faces for type portraits such as the “Oriental Woman” or the “Lute Player” (1828, Belvedere, Vienna), often served as models for his portraits. This portrait of a young girl, whose physiognomy is eminently representative of the innocent gentleness of von Amerling’s preferred type of woman, displays the same technical sophistication of detail, from the shiny silk ribbons and the delicate roses in the braided hair to the transparent shimmering porcelain complexion and rosy cheeks and the dark red velvet dress with the puffy fur collar. The dark background accentuates the effect of a meticulously rendered materiality and the impact of the light effects, which von Amerling employs to create the archetype of a naïve, untouched young beauty, portrayed with a romantic, slightly absent-minded gaze.

Jacopo Amigoni, 1682 Venedig – 1752 Madrid, zug.Junge Dame mit Laute und roter SchleifeÖl auf Leinwand.95 x 73 cm.In vergoldetem ornamental akzentuiertem Rahmen.Hüftportrait einer jungen Dame, deren zartrosa Inkarnat sich zusammen mit der Allonge-Perücke und den weißen Spitzen vom bräunlichen Hintergrund abhebt. In ihren Händen eine Laute. Gekonnt verstand es der Künstler, vermutlich Jacopo Amigoni, die verschiedenen Oberflächen, wie Silberstickerei auf blauer Seide, Spitze und die Haut, differenziert darzustellen. Da Amigoni durch ganz Europa reiste, ist die Entstehung des Gemäldes schwer zu lokalisieren. Die dargestellten Spitzen machen einen Entstehungszeitpunkt in den 1740er-Jahren wahrscheinlich. 1739 kehrte Amigoni nach Venedig zurück, bereiste Frankreich und wurde 1747 Hofmaler am Königshof in Madrid, wo er fünf Jahre später verstarb.

Jan Harmensz van Bylert,um 1597 Utrecht – 1671 ebendaDER LAUTENSPIELERÖl auf Leinwand.105 x 80 cm.Der Maler hatte sich auf Halbbildnisse spezialisiert, insbesondere auch von Musikern oder Philosophen, die in mehreren öffentlichen Sammlungen vertreten sind, wie das bekannte Gemälde mit einem Konzert mit Lauten- und Cellospielern. Auch das hier vorliegende Motiv zeigt einen Jüngling im Dreiviertelbildnis nach rechts, in sitzender Haltung an einer Laute, wobei sein halb geöffneter Mund andeutet, dass er sich selbst singend begleitet. Über dem schwarzen kurzen lockigen Haar ein Barett mit großer weißer Straußenfeder, eine Reminiszenz auch an das Werk Caravaggios, wie ebenso die Darstellung des jungen Musikers mit entblößter Schulter. Farblich dominierend ist das kräftige Rot im Umhang, das als farblicher Gegenpol zum hellen Grau-Blau des Hintergrundes steht. Der Einfluss Caravaggios ist auch in dem vorliegenden Gemälde unverkennbar.Der Künstler war Sohn eines Glasmalers und nach Mitteilung des frühen Künstlerbiographen Joachim von Sandrart d. Ä. (1606-1688) ein Schüler des Abraham Bloemaert (1564-1651), bevor ihn seine Studienreisen nach Frankreich und dann nach Italien führten. In Rom verblieb er wahrscheinlich bis 1624 und stand dort in Kontakt mit den holländischen Malern Jan Gerritsz van Bronchorst (1603-1661) oder Cornelis van Poelenburgh (1586-1667). Ab Mitte der 1620er-Jahre ließ er sich stark von Michelangelo Merisi il Caravaggio (1570/71-1610) und Guido Reni (1575-1642) beeinflussen, wie ebenso von Gerrit van Honthorst (1590-1656). Er gilt als einer der führenden, wenn nicht sogar als führendster Vertreter der Utrechter Caravaggisten.Literatur:Paul Huys, Jan van Bijlert, 1998, S. 139 Nr. 105, Pl. 46, circa 1625-1635.

The incredible lightness of touch which he so breathtakingly achieved on this goblet demonstrates the remarkable degree to which this engraver mastered the stipple technique. It is perhaps no surprise that for many years this piece was considered to be the work of his contemporary, David Wolff.In his 1935 monograph on Wolff, Wilfred Buckley identified a group of glasses which he considered to be of higher quality both technically and artistically, with finer stippling and better draughtsmanship, than examples signed by Wolff himself, see p.26 and 'Group C'. These were subsequently attributed to 'Alius' in Frans Smit's 1993 catalogue. Whilst there are close similarities between the designs chosen by both engravers and they may have worked in association with one another, 'Alius' is the only Dutch engraver known to have stippled chinoiseries on glass and he attained a level of skill which undoubtedly surpassed that of Wolff.Only six other glasses stippled with chinoiseries by 'Alius' are recorded including the present lot, all of which incorporate the full-length figure of a Chinese gentleman. Two of these are similarly decorated with musical scenes in which an elderly seated man plays a Chinese lute or pipa. This includes a light baluster goblet of similar form to the present lot in the Brunnier Art Museum (Smit no.Eb.28) and a facet stem goblet in the Metropolitan Museum of Art (Smit no.Ch.19). Another goblet of similar size and form to the present lot but decorated with a different chinoiserie scene (Smit no.Ch.20) is illustrated by Hubert Vreeken, Glas in Het Amsterdams Historisch Museum (1998), p.258, no.293. The remaining two chinoiserie decorated goblets recorded include an opaque twist example in the Rijksmuseum (Smit no.Ch.17) illustrated by Pieter C Ritsema van Eck, Glass in the Rijksmuseum, Vol.2 (1995), p.432, no.548 and a further facet stem example in the Manoir de Saussey (Smit no.Ci.28).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
