Lot 676 | Seltener großer Biedermeier-Lichtschirm mit Lithophanie
"Himmelfahrt Christi" nach A.R. Mengs
Holz und Biskuitporzellan-Lithophanie. Über okotogonalem, mehrfach gekehltem Sockel hochrechteckige, bogenförmig abschließende Rahmung mit großer Lithophanie, die Himmelfahrt Christi nach Anton Raphael Mengs darstellend. Ausführung Carl Gotthelf Habenicht (1800 - 1849), seit 1816 als Modelleur an der Meissener Porzellanmanufaktur tätig. Rückseitig signiert "Habenicht". Modell-Nr. 112.
Die bedeutende Lithophanie nach dem um 1751 entstandenen Altargemälde des deutschen Malers Anton Raphael Mengs (1728 - 1779) in der Katholischen Hofkirche zu Dresden, wurde im Januar des Jahres 1834 von König Anton von Sachsen in Auftrag gegeben und noch im selben Jahr von Carl Gotthelf Habenicht in Wachs modelliert und lithophaniert, so geben es die Arbeitsberichte der Abteilung Gestaltung wieder. Die schwierige und künstlerisch hochwertige Arbeit ist eine der größten und teuersten Lithophanien, die in Meissen gefertigt wurden.
