Lot 154 | Wilhelm von Kobell. The ford in front of the jetty
Wilhelm von Kobell
The ford in front of the jetty
Signed and dated 1793 lower left. Watercolour auf paper. 33.3 x 40 cm. Mounted, browned. Minor damage to frame (54 x 59 cm).

Kobell beschäftigt sich in seinem Frühwerk immer wieder mit einfachen bäuerlichen Szenen, die anekdotenhaft den Betrachtenden ein Leben am Land illustrieren. In vielen dieser Werke zeigt er ein kleines und meist harmloses Unglück, in anderen Fällen - wie auch in diesem Fall - wird eine Idylle wiedergegeben. Gleichzeitig spiegelt der Künstler hier auch das Trügerische der Ruhe wieder: Wir wissen nicht, was das Kind im grünen Kleid mit dem Stock plant, und man könnte fast meinen, im Ausdruck des weißen Rindes im Vordergrund schon eine Vorahnung zu erkennen...
