Lot 1581 | Nathanael Schmitt
(1847 Heidelberg - 1918 Karlsruhe) Römische Straßenkinder beim Kartenspiel Szenische Darstellung mit zwei jungen, am Boden knienden bzw. auf einem Absatz sitzenden Knaben beim Kartenspiel, denen ein älterer, zählender Junge mit Orangenkorb auf dem Kopf und ein junges Mädchen zusehen. Realistisches, erzählerisches, unheroisches Genrebild mit feinfühliger, individualisierender Charakterisierung der Kinder, deren sichtlich abgewetzte und zerissene Kleidung sie für den Betrachter eindeutig als Straßenkinder erkennbar macht. Der aus einer Künstlerfamilie stammende Maler studierte bei Peter von Cornelius in München und 1868-1871 an der Kunstschule in Karlsruhe. 1872-1880 war Schmitt dauerhaft in Rom ansässig, wo er auch später regelmäßig während der Wintermonate weilte. Dort entstanden viele seiner Bilder, zu denen auch dieses Hauptwerk gehört. Ab 1886 lebte und wirkte der Künstler in Karlsruhe, von wo aus er, außer nach Italien, auch nach Griechenland und in die Türkei reiste. Ol/Leinwand; Links unten signiert und datiert 1893. Verso altes Etikett der Galerie Commeter Hamburg. 110 cm x 80 cm. Rahmen. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1893.
