Theodor Alt (1846 Döhlau/Oberfranken - 1937 Ansbach)
Brustbildnis eines Mädchens mit schwarz-rotem Hut
Mit schnellem, breitem, flüssigem Duktus gemaltes, wohl um 1870-1873 entstandenes, realistisches Porträt im Halbprofil, bei dem Alt durch die Lichtführung die weiße Bluse, das Gesicht und die roten Elemente auf der Hutoberseite effektvoll betont. Theodor Alt studierte seit 1863 an die Kunstakademie in München, zunächst bei Hermann Anschütz, 1866-1873 bei Arthur von Ramberg. Von prägendem Einfluss auf Alt wurde sein Mitschüler Wilhelm Leibl, dem er sich anschloss. Zusammen mit Leibl, Johann Sperl und Rudolf Hirth du Frênes bezog Alt 1869 ein gemeinsames Atelier in München in der Arcisstraße, woraus der sich der berühmte Leibl-Kreis bildete, dem dann auch Karl Haider, Fritz Schider und Wilhelm Trübner angehörten. Alts Werke aus jenen Jahren wurden wesentlich durch Leibl geprägt, dessen Einfluss sich auch im vorliegenden Bildnis widerspiegelt. Öl/Lwd.; R. u. sign.; 59 cm x 47 cm. Wohl Original-Rahmen.
Oil on canvas. Signed. Probably original frame.
