Lot 1877 | Hans Werner Schmidt
(1859 Hamburg - 1950 Weimar)
Rast beim "Gasthaus zum goldenen Stern" mit Bauern auf dem Weg zum Pferdemarkt
Erzählerisch schildert Schmidt eine Szene vor dem an einer Dorfstraße gelegenen Gasthaus: die Pferde werden von Knechten versorgt und Bauern erhalten ihr Bier, während ein Reiter sich eine Pfeife anzündet und rechts im Mittelgrund erste Verkaufsverhandlungen stattzufinden scheinen, links im Vordergrund picken Hühner am Boden bzw. werden von einem kleinen Hund gejagt. Frühes, realistisches Hauptwerk Schmidts aus dem Jahr 1882, das ihn als künstlerisch herausragenden Pferdemaler zeigt und der die Szene hier in eine lichtdurchflutete Landschaft komponierte. Schmidt studierte seit 1879 an der Kunstschule Weimar bei Albert Brendel und Theodor Hagen, 1885 wurde er Meisterschüler, 1903 zum Professor ernannt. 1883 zeigte Schmidt auf der Münchener Internationalen Kunstausstellung das im Motiv vergleichbare Gemälde "Pferdemarkt in Thüringen", welches im selben Zusammenhang entstanden sein dürfte. Öl/Lwd.; L. u. sign. u. dat. 1882 mit Ortsangabe Weimar. 59 cm x 99,5 cm. Rahmen.
Eine nur wenig abweichende Version von 1883 (mit abweichendem Namen des Gasthaus-Inhabers) wurde 1994 bei Christie's, New York, versteigert.
Provenienz: aus der Auflösung der Privatsammlung Horst Abke, Springe; Erworben 1998/99 in der Hamstead Gallery in London.
Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1882 with location Weimar.
