About the Item

(Dresden, 1799 -Naples, 1866)
The Bay of Naples and Vesuvius from the Pausilippe
Oil on canvas
H. 66 cm; L. 98.5 cm
Trained in Dresden by Caspar Friedrich and the Norwegian landscape painter Dahl, Carl Götzloff discovered Italy in 1821 and settled in Naples in 1825.
From then on, his paintings moved away from Friedrian Romanticism towards the style of the Pausilippe School, whose main exponents were the Dutch painter Pitloo and the Italians Gigante and Duclère, with whom Götzloff shared an apartment for a time. The works produced were large panoramic vedute of the Neapolitan coast, bathed in warm light and often animated with figures to lend picturesqueness to the whole.
Götzloff's geographical distance from Germany did not prevent him from being a member of the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts, and also from acting as artistic agent for Prussian King Frederick William IV. In 1835, Ferdinand II, King of the Two Sicilies, appointed him court painter. Despite his international success, the artist died in poverty in Naples.
The way the clouds are written, and the way the houses and figures are treated, allow us to link our painting to Götzloff's style. Götzloff does not fail to depict Vesuvius and its fumaroles, the Castle of the Egg, the San Martino Charterhouse, but also a small architectural folly. The pagoda at the water's edge in the background was built around 1815 by the Duke of Roccaromana for the villa that bears his name. A lover of exoticism and taxidermy, the Duke held grand parties in this villa, which is now a condominium divided into several apartments.

- Maurice Lobre (1862 -1951) The snackBy Maurice LobreLocated in BELEYMAS, FRMaurice LOBRE (Bordeaux 1862 - Paris 1951) Le goûter Huile sur toile H. 87 cm ; L. 91,5 cm Format peint d’origine, H. 101 cm ; L. 96 cm, disposé sur un châssis plus petit par l’artiste lui-même. Signée et datée 1888 en bas à droite Provenance : Collection privée, Lyon Exposition : 1889, Salon des Artistes Français, n°1719 « Intérieur », (ou 1720 nommé également « Intérieur ») Œuvres en rapport : Le Cabinet de toilette de Jacques-Emile Blanche, (titre erroné) H. 80 cm ; L. 85 cm, HST, Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid, pendant de notre toile. Maurice Lobre a-t-il connu Marcel Proust ? On ne peut encore l'affirmer, bien qu'il ait eu de nombreux amis en commun avec l'écrivain. Mais sa peinture intimiste pourrait illustrer certaines pages de Du côté de chez Swann. Trois citations dues à des proches de Proust, l'une de l'écrivain Léon Daudet, la seconde du peintre Jacques-Emile Blanche, la dernière du poète mondain Robert de Montesquiou, donnent un aperçu de ce que fut la renommée de Maurice Lobre en son temps : "Il en va autrement de Lobre, le Vermeer français, le peintre exquis des intérieurs et des palais de Versailles, des reflets sur les meubles rares, de la lumière prisonnière des miroirs, des laques et des cuivres polis. Lobre est joyeux comme un coup de vent, qui fait envoler les préjugés et les poncifs, éloquent, passionné, ivre de la couleur et des formes, charmant et conquérant de toutes les matières. Il se promène ici-bas ainsi que dans un musée en plein-air, s'amuse de tout, rejette et maudit le laid et le vil, accueille et bénit le beau et le bien…" Léon Daudet L'Entre-deux-guerres. Souvenirs des milieux littéraires, politiques, artistiques et médicaux de 1880 à 1905. "Voici le patient, appliqué, sage M. Lobre. Il est difficile de mettre plus d'honnêteté à peindre des intérieurs sans figures. Je préfère ses petits salons de Versailles à ses cathédrales… Nous lui devons des petits bijoux d'émotion et de large fini." Jacques-Emile Blanche "Il a recueilli sur des toiles le visage du vieux Versailles (…). Il a peuplé de visions impalpables des chambres " où il s'est passé quelque chose ", et il en a saturé l'atmosphère de particules historiques. Donner une telle impression avec certitude, avec vérité, c'est plus difficile que de faire évoluer des personnages costumés, dans ce qu'on appelle bêtement "une reconstitution historique"." Comte Robert de Montesquiou Maurice Lobre commence sa carrière au Salon de 1882 où il expose deux portraits, dont celui de son camarade de l'atelier Carolus-Duran, le peintre espagnol Ramon Casas...Category
