Lot 1887 | Alexander Koester
(1864 Bergneustadt - 1932 München)
"Beim Sticken (Studie)". Originaltitel
In lockerem, dynamischem Duktus und tonigem Kolorit gemalte, unmittelbar eingefangene Momentaufnahme: Im bäuerlichen Interieur unterbricht eine junge Frau ihre Arbeit am Stickrahmen und legt ihren Arm liebevoll um ein kleines Mädchen. Gekonnt flüchtiges, impressionistisches Werk aus dem frühen Oeuvre Koesters, in dem sich der überaus schaffensreiche Künstler unterschiedlichsten Motiven widmete, neben einer kleinen Werkreihe mit Akten und Allegorien schuf er eine Vielzahl von Porträts, Landschaften und Genreszenen. Nach dem Studium an der Karlsruher Akademie bei Carl Hoff, Claus Meyer und Ludwig von Kalckreuth, unternahm er zahlreiche Studienreisen u.a. nach Tirol, wo er sich 1896 in Klausen niederließ. Dort fand er zu unmittelbar in der Natur gemalten Landschaften und Tierbildern und schlussendlich auch zu seiner Vorliebe für Entenmotive, die ab ca. 1900 sein Schaffen fast ausschließlich bestimmten. Auf der Großen Berliner Kunstausstellung 1899 zeigte Koester erstmals Gemälde mit Entensujets, 1904 erhielt er auf der Weltausstellung in St. Louis eine Goldmedaille für ein Entengemälde. 1915 ließ sich der Künstler schließlich in Diessen am Ammersee nieder.
