Lot 1602 | Konstantin Cretius
(1814 Brieg/Schlesien - 1901 Berlin) Karneval in Rom Szenische Darstellung mit fröhlichen jungen Damen und Mädchen, die von ihrem Balkon Blumen herabwerfen. Ein etwas größeres Öl-Gemälde mit demselben Motiv ist bei Boetticher, Band I/1, unter der Nr. 37 aufgeführt, versteigert am 22. April 1884 auf einer Kunst-Auktion von R. Lepke in Berlin. Bei dieser etwas kleineren, in virtuos feiner Pastellmalerei ausgeführten Version dürfte es sich um eine aus diesem Anlass entstandene Auftragsarbeit eines Connaisseurs handeln. Cretius studierte an der Akademie in Berlin bei Karl Wilhelm Wach und erhielt 1838 den Großen Preis der Akademie. Hierdurch konnte er eine dreijährige Studienreise durch Europa unternehmen, die ihn auch durch Italien bis nach Palermo führte und während der er sich 1841/42 für ein Jahr in Rom aufhielt. Die Italien-Reise hinterließ bleibende Eindrücke, die sich in der Folge in einer Reihe von italienischen Genrebildern niederschlugen. Auch dieses Pastell muss als eine späte Remineszenz hieran gesehen werden. Pastell/Papier, auf Leinwand kaschiert. Links unten signiert und datiert 1884. 90,5 cm x 75.5 cm. Rahmen. Pastel on paper, laid down on canvas. Signed and dated 1884.
