Max Ackermann Modernist Original Painting Germany 1935 Stuttgart

About the Item

An original pastel painting by the German Modernist painter Max Ackermann,(1887 - 1975) He was both painter and graphic artist of abstract works. Signed and dated Born in 1887 in Berlin, Ackermann began carving wood figures and modeling ornaments in his father’s studio at a young age. By age 19 he was pupil of the Belgian painter Henri van de Velde in Weimar. In 1908 he studied at the Art Academy in Dresden, and in 1909 and 1910 he was a student of Franz von Stuck in the Art Academy of Munich. His first one-man show was held in Stuttgart in 1924, and in 1928 he shared a collective show with Kandinskty and George Grosz. Ackerman began painting abstractly long before the First World War. In 1933 he was forbidden, by Nazi decree, to exhibit, and in 1936, again by decree, he was forbidden to teach, but he continued his abstract painting. After the second World War, a one-man show in 1946 in Stuttgart was soon followed by other solo shows in the larger cities of the Western German Republic and collective shows in Paris and Zurich.

  • Magnificent Sinhalese Portuguese Kastane Rhino Ceremonial Ceylon Sword 17th C
    Located in London, GB
    A magnificent 17th century Ceremonial Sri Lankan Kastane sword with Rhino handle and gold and silver Portuguese inlayed blade. A kasthane is a short traditional ceremonial or decorative single-edged Sri Lankan sword. The sword is featured in the Flag of Sri Lanka. The main aspect of this Kastane Hilts shows the central monster accompanied by supporting minor iconic forms and the peculiar guard arrangement incorporating Buddhist style Vajra quillons. The scabbard of this Kastane sword is made of Rhino horn and is decorated with brass, silver and gold. It is a testament to the skill of the traditional craftsmen operating in Sri Lankas ancient Royal Sword Workshops. The sword measures 75cm in length The Dutch East India Company (VOC or Vereenigde Oost-indische Compagnie in Dutch) regularly gifted swords to the Kandyan court as part of their strategy to protect their trading privileges. Many of these swords had the traditional Sinhalese decoration but with VOC-marked blades. From 1467 to 1818, Kandy was an independent kingdom in Ceylon—present-day Sri Lanka. In the 18th century, the Kingdom of Kandy was recognized for its outstanding metalwork and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, their fine metalworking came to an end when Kandy fell under British rule in the early 19th century. The kasthane served as symbols of rank and office, presented by the king to noblemen and local chieftains. The silver-mounted kasthane was reserved for the Adigar, the highest officials or feudal lords who also acted as ministers and governors. It also served as a diplomatic gift from the court to European visitors. It was a Sri Lankan tradition to wear the kasthane as a symbol of rank to mark ceremonial occasions. However, the sword type, with an animal-decorated hilt and curved blade, was of European origin. It has its roots in the European hunting swords...
