Lot 328 | ZIESENIS, JOHANN GEORG 1716 Kopenhagen - 1776 Hannover
Herrenporträt (Selbstbildnis) Halbfigur nach links, den Kopf nach rechts gewandt. In der Kleidung der Mitglieder der Herrnhuter Gemeinde (Herrnhuter Brüder-Unität). Öl auf Lwd. 32 x 24 cm. Doubliert. Restauriert. Min. besch. Rahmen. Von Ziesenis ist bisher nur ein einziges Selbstbildnis im reifen Mannesalter bekannt (WVZ-Nr. 230). Laut freundlichem Hinweis von Dr. Wolfgang Wiese könnte dieses frühe Selbstbildnis in der Zeit entstanden sein, als der junge ''Kunstmahler'' zu Beginn seiner Mannheimer Tätigkeit um 1743-1745 Atelier und Wohnung - so wie andere Künstler - im kurpfälzischen Schloss hatte. Was sich mit einer Mitteilung des sächsischen Gesandten am kurfürstlichen Hof, des Kunsttheoretikers und Sammlers Christian Ludwig von Hagedorn von 1745 deckt, der Ziesenis dort antraf (Schrader, s. u., S. 22). Literatur: Schrader, Karin, Der Bildnismaler Johann Georg Ziesenis (1716-1776). Leben und Werk mit kritischem Oeuvrekatalog (= Göttinger Beiträge zur Kunstwissenschaft, Bd. 3). Münster 1995, S. 154 f., WVZ-Nr. 23 (mit Abb. 41): vorliegendes Gemälde. Dort ''um 1745-50'' datiert. Der Kontakt von Johann Georg Ziesenis zur Herrnhuter Gemeinde sollte für den Künstler zu einem bestimmenden Faktor seines Lebens werden (vgl. u. a. Schrader, op. cit., S. 19).
