  • German Baroque landscape Settlement near lake 18th century Oil painting Signed
    Located in Stockholm, SE
    Signed lower right for Johann Christian Vollerdt (1708 - 1769). The beauty of baroque scenery is visible in painting, an excellent perspective with striking effects of chiaroscuro. This distinguishes the work of German painters of the 18th century. In their paintings, they exaggerate nature a bit and go visually beyond the borders of the canvas. With the exception of one drawing (“River landscape in the Dutch style”), only paintings by Vollerdt are known at the moment, exclusively miniature river landscapes, which were very popular at the time. His earliest surviving works date from 1738, the latest from 1769. Oil painting on canvas, framed. Size app.: 34.5 x 43.2 cm (roughly 13.6 x 17 in) and nice original frame ca 46.5 by 55.5 cm (roughly 18.3 x 22 in). Very Good condition, usage age wear losses on the edges mostly; restorations, retouches; edge of canvas relined. Please study good resolution images for overall cosmetic condition. In person actual painting may appear darker or brighter than in our pictures, strictly depending on sufficient light in your environment. Weight of app. 2,05 kg is going to measure some 4 kg volume weight packed for shipment. Vollerdt initially received training in the private school of the copper engraver Paul Christian Zinck in Leipzig. After 1738 he began his apprenticeship with Johann Alexander Thiele in Dresden. Initially, he worked as a supraport painter. So he is probably the author of the 31 over-portals and panneaus in Oberlichtenau Castle, which Heinrich Graf von Brühl acquired in 1744, of which, however, only those in the garden hall have survived. From 1758 to 1769 V. painted a multitude of such landscapes, often pairs of pictures...
