About the Item

A rare study of a table lamp, drawn with pencil on vellum, by Robert Gerlach from circa 1915. We can assume that the materials would be brass and glass. Whether the drawing was actualizing for a client is unknown. This is a beautiful Jugendstil design. Robert Gerlach was born in 1887.

Latter he worked as a designer in the workshops of Hagenauer and Bramberger. From the mid-1920s, he was a successful, self-employed architect in Vienna.
