Lot 2700 | Ludwig Wilhelm Wichmann
(1788 Potsdam - 1859 Berlin) "Wasserschöpferin". Originaltitel Große Bronze, in zwei Tönen braun bzw. dunkel patiniert. Guss Kunstgießerei Lauchhammer, 2. Hälfte 20. Jahrhundert; Auf einer ovalen Plinthe lebensnah geschilderte Darstellung eines Mädchens mit Wasserkrug. Wichmann lernte ab 1800 bei Johann Gottfried Schadow, 1809-1813 arbeitete er in Paris. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Berlin war Wichmann wiederum im Atelier Schadows tätig. 1821 gründete er ein eigenes Bildhauer-Atelier, in dem er u. a. Aufträge für K. F. Schinkel ausführte. Die Statue seiner "Wasserschöpferin", die später von Lauchhammer in Bronze gegossen wurde, zeigte Wichmann erstmals 1840 mit großem Erfolg in der Berliner Akademie-Ausstellung; 1843 wurde die von Schadow als "anmutige" und "lieblichste Erscheinung" gerühmte Skulptur in Paris mit der großen goldenen Medaille ausgezeichnet. H. ca. 148 cm. A large brown and dark patinated bronze. Posthumous cast by Lauchhammer foundry, second half 20th century.
