Lot 1609 | Alfred Metzener
(1833 Niendorf - 1905 Zweisimmen/Schweiz)Ansicht von Gufidaun bei Klausen in SüdtirolBlick auf das idyllische kleine Dorf Gufidaun mit Schloss Summersburg und der alten Pfarrkirche, im Vordergrund eine rastende Bauernfamilie. Fein gemalte, atmosphärisch gestimmte Vedute Metzeners, die aufgrund der künstlerischen qualitätvollen Erfassung der Landschaft mit ihrer Architektur und des imposanten Formates zu seinen Hauptwerken gezählt werden muss. Der an der Berliner und Münchener Akademie ausgebildete Maler war ab 1867 in Düsseldorf ansässig. Gebirgslandschaften aus Oberbayern, Österreich, der Schweiz und Südtirol waren das Hauptsujet des Künstlers, die seit den 1870er Jahren vielfach ausstellte. Wahrscheinlich ist dieses Gemälde identisch mit der "Dorfpartie in Südtirol (Gufidaun bei Clausen), die er 1890 bei der Berliner Akdemie-Ausstellung, 1892 bei der Münchener Jahresausstellung im Glaspalast (Nr. 1161) und 1894 in Antwerpen zeigte.
