Lot 3973 | Wilhelm Kuhnert, Löwen
lagernder Löwe mit Löwin, hierzu bemerkt Wikipedia „Entgegen der damaligen Übung studierte und zeichnete Friedrich Wilhelm Kuhnert tropische Tiere nicht in zoologischen Gärten sondern in der freien Natur. ... Kuhnert gilt als bedeutendster deutscher Tiermaler seiner Zeit. Da er nicht nur Maler und Illustrator, sondern auch Jäger war, nahm er oft schwere Strapazen auf sich, um seine Motive in freier Wildbahn aufzuspüren. ... Von seinem Wohnsitz in Berlin aus unternahm er Reisen in den Norden, nach Ägypten, Ostafrika und Indien, um Landschafts- und Tierstudien vorzunehmen. Sein Lieblingsmotiv waren die afrikanischen Löwen.“, Litho, um 1920, links unten in der Darstellung signiert "Wilh. Kuhnert", rückseitig Dedikation "Schießpreis – geschossen an 10.8.1930 in Kaulsdorf – Gestiftet vom Verein ehem. Deutsch-Ostafrikaner", hinter Glas gerahmt, Druckmaß ca. 15 x 25 cm.
