Lot 734 | Seltene Figurengruppe Scaramuz und Colombine
aus der "Italienischen Komödie"
Unregelmäßiger, mit plastischen Blütenranken und Blättern belegter Sockel. An einem kleinen, blühenden Baum stehender Scaramuz im Harlekinkostüm mit schwarzer Kappe. Sich dicht anschmiegende, ihn umarmende, junge Colombine in blauem Mieder und weißer, blumig gemusterter Schürze auf rot-schwarz gestreiftem, langem Rock, unter ihrem linken Arm einen Vogelbauer haltend. Polychrome Malerei mit Goldkonturierung. Entwurf Johann Joachim Kaendler, 1741. Minim. restauriert; Verwaschene Schwertermarke. H. 18 cm.
Das Motiv des Liebespaares, eine Adaption von Nicolas Lancrets Gemälde "La cage" (im Louvre) wird bei Kaendler in ausdrucksstarker, erzählerischer Weise von zwei Figuren der Commedia dell`arte verkörpert. Es ist der Moment wiedergegeben, in dem Scaramuz, der den Typus des neapolitanischen Aufschneiders und Schürzenjäger vertritt, das Mädchen Colombine, zärtlich an der Wange berührt, um sie im nächsten Augenblick zu küssen.
Wenige Exemplare dieser Figurengruppe sind im Bestand bedeutender, internationaler Museen, unter anderem des Victoria & Albert und des British Museum in London, Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Musée des Arts Décoratifs und der Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen in Dresden.
