Schloss Frohburg, near Leipzig in Saxony was acquired in 1777 by Johann Gottfried Blümner of Leipzig, great-great-great-great uncle of the owner of the present lot. Blümner's son, Ernst Freiherr Blümner von Frohburg (1779-1815) started the picture collection at Frohburg. Blümner maintained close contacts with numerous Saxon painters including Anton Graff ('le respectable Graff', in his diary) and Johann Friedrich August Tischbein, to both of whom he sat, and Caspar David Friedrich (see H.F. Weiss, 'Ernst Blümner und die Dresner Kunstszene in den Jahren 1805-1808, in Zeitschrift für Kunstgeschichte, vol.56, no.4, 1993, Pp.473-486). Frohburg passed to Ernst Blümner's niece Constanze, who married Johann Paul, Freiherr von Falkenstein.

Anton Graff (1736 Winterthur - 1813 Dresden): In the countryside, c. 1801, Charcoal Technique: Charcoal on Inscription: Verso inscribed by another person: "Anton Graff". Date: c. 1801 Description: In today's understanding, Anton Graff appears as the epitome of the gifted portraitist at the turning point of Classicism and Romanticism. But it was particularly in Dresden, where Graff had been decisively active since he moved there in 1766 and was appointed professor of portrait painting in 1788, that he occupied himself with landscape painting and thus also had an influence on the young artists of the Saxon landscape school. Philipp Otto Runge, who came to Dresden in 1801 and found close contact with Graff, reported: "yesterday I was with old Graff, he has just painted a landscape" and Elisa von der Recke also enquired on 5 November 1801: "Are you, noble friend, painting landscapes quite diligently? Even though Graff had contact with Adrian Zingg and Conrad Gessner and was not closed to the romantic charm of the landscape, especially in the Plauenschen Grund, he seems to have begun to deal with nature in drawings and paintings only around 1800. Berckenhagen's comprehensive catalogue raisonné lists 98 landscape drawings by Graff that came from his son's estate, including a depiction of the interior of a stable with a view of a farm. Probably created around 1801 in Blasewitz, it belongs to the group of spontaneous "Erlebnis-Niederschriften". The picture we are presenting here shows the same stable, only the angle of view has been slightly shifted. The interest is not in the view from the gate, but in the structure of the interior with the boarded wall and the hayracks. Our sheet is probably the first clarifying sketch Graff made of this situation. With quick, rough strokes he captures the immediate impression of the stable lying in dim light. The present work comes from the famous collection of Graff drawings that was auctioned by C. G. Boerner in Leipzig in 1914, largely compiled from the estate of his son. The sheet listed by Berckenhagen is listed under catalogue number 64 and ours under number 65.

"Im Jahr 1777 malte ich in Rheinsberg den Printen Heinrich" notierte Graff in seiner Selbstbiographie. In Graffs Atelier entstanden danach bis 1778 eine Reihe von Bildnissen des Prinzen, Brustbildnisse sowohl in hochrechteckigem Format als auch im Oval, aber auch große, ganzfigurige Porträts in Feldherrenpose. Die Komposition des vorliegenden Gemäldes ist in mehreren anderen Versionen Graffs bekannt (u.a. im Museum des Goethe-Hauses in Frankfurt/M. und in der Royal Collection in England) und wurde schon 1779 auch in einem Kupferstich von Johann Friedrich Bause (1738 1814) umgesetzt. Das durch eine subtile Lichtführung und die ausdrucksvolle, präzise Charakterisierung des Dargestellten künstlerisch herausragende Porträt zeigt die ganze Meisterschaft Graffs als Bildnismaler. Graff war einer der bedeutendsten und gefragtesten Porträtmaler seiner Zeit, es gab kaum eine wichtige Persönlichkeit in Deutschland- darunter Fürsten, Staatsmänner, Generäle, Gelehrte, Dichter, Künstler oder Kaufmänner, die sich nicht gerne von ihm porträtieren ließ. 1766 wurde er von Kurfürst Friedrich August III. von Sachsen als Hofmaler an die Kunstakademie nach Dresden berufen. Besonders schätzte man Graff auch am preußischen Hof in Berlin, wohin er öfters reiste und 1781-1786 auch sein berühmtes Porträt König Friedrich II. schuf. Öl/Lwd., doubl.; 72 cm x 58 cm. Rahmen. Prinz Friedrich Heinrich Ludwig von Preußen (1726 Berlin - 1802 Rheinsberg) war ein jüngerer Bruder König Friedrich II. von Preußen, diente im Siebenjährigen Krieg erfolgreich als General. Er war zudem ein so geschickter Diplomat, dass Heinrich die Herrschaft über ein von Zarin Katharina II. geplantes Königreich in der Walachei erhielt und ihm sogar die Statthalterschaft über die amerikanischen Kolonien Englands in Aussicht stellte, bis sich diese jedoch 1776 für unabhängig erklärten. Er verbrachte alljährlich die meiste Zeit im idyllischen Schloss Rheinsberg, das ihm sein Bruder 1744 geschenkt hatte und dessen Park er großräumig erweitern ließ. Er machte Rheinsberg zu einem Musenhof, ließ 1774 ein neues Schlosstheater erbauen, das von zahlreichen Schauspielertruppen bespielt wurde, es fanden Konzerte statt und zahlreiche Besucher bildeten einen kleinen Hofstaat; auch der König kam öfters zu Besuch.

Bei dem Dargestellten handelt es sich aufgrund der Porträtähnlichkeit vermutlich um Fürst Ludwig zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg (1696 - 1765), der im Januar 1764 eine Standeserhöhung vom Grafen zum Fürsten erlebte, indem ihn Kaiser Franz I. in den Reichsfürstenstand aufnahm. Wohl aus diesem Anlass gab er ein Bildnis bei einem meisterlichen Porträtisten wie Graff in Auftrag. Graff, den George Desmarées und Antoine Pesne beinflussten, war 1759-1766 in Augsburg tätig, bevor er als Hofmaler nach Dresden berufen wurde. Öl/Lwd.; Verso altes Etikett mit Zuschreibung "Pes(ne)". 95 cm x 73,5 cm. Wohl Original-Rahmen. Attributed to Anton Graff (1736 - 1813). Oil on canvas. Old label with attribution to Antoine Pesne on the canvas stretcher. Probably original frame.
(1736 Winterthur - 1813 Dresden) Ovales Porträt von Marie Madeleine (Magdalene) Platzmann geb. Lautier Graff, der als Schöpfer des bürgerlichen Frauen- und Männerporträts in Deutschland gilt, schildert Marie Madeleine Platzmann in einem getupften weiß-rosafarbenen Seidenmantel und mit einem zarten, weißen Chiffontuch, das sie locker am Hals geknotet und über ihr grau gepudertes Haar gelegt hat. Graffs Meisterschaft, dem Wesen einer Person in seinen Porträts künstlerischen Ausdruck zu verleihen, zeigt sich auch in diesem um 1775 entstandenen Bildnis. Er legte es mit weich modellierender Lichtführung vor einem dunklen, neutralen Hintergrund an, höchst subtil nuanciert im Kolorit. Virtuos hat Graff die Stoffe wiedergegeben, doch legt er sein eigentliches Hauptaugenmerk auf den Ausdruck des sanften Gesichts, wie sie uns mit offenem Blick, glänzenden, regen Augen und leicht angedeutetem Lächeln entgegnet, wodurch eine vertraute, dialogartige Beziehung zum Betrachter entsteht. Die Dargestellte war eine Tochter des Berliner Hofjuweliers Pierre Lautier und heiratete 1752 den Berliner Seidenfabrikanten Jean (Johannes) Platzmann (1720 - 1770), nach dessen Tod in zweiter Ehe den preußischen Geheimrat Pierre Vigne. Hierdurch gehörte sie weiterhin zur gehobenen Gesellschaft, daher war kaum ein Anderer und Besserer geeignet, als Graff, um sich porträtieren zu lassen. Der weilte oft in Berlin, um dort Bildnisse auszuführen (und seinen Schwiegervater Johann Georg Sulzer zu besuchen). Das vorliegende Gemälde zeigt sie somit als ungefähr 45-jährige Dame. Bei dem vorliegenden, bisher unpublizierten Gemälde dürfte es sich um eine der drei von Graff eigenhändig für die Kinder Platzmanns angefertigten Versionen handeln. Eine Fassung befindet sich im Herzog-Anton-Ulrich-Museum in Braunschweig (Inv.-Nr. 767), eine zweite Version im Museum in Chemnitz, diese dritte Version befand sich in Winterthurer Privatbesitz. Professor Helmut Börsch-Supan schreibt hierzu: "Wegen seiner herausragenden Qualität halte ich es für eine eigenhändige Arbeit von Graff. In der Leichtigkeit der Handschaft scheint es mir sogar dem Braunschweiger Exemplar überlegen". Die Dargestellte und Anton Graff als Schöpfer des Gemäldes lassen sich überdies durch einen alten Klebezettel in Französisch auf der Rückseite des originalen Keilrahmens identifizieren: "Marie Magdalaine Platzmann (/...) à Berlin le 6 Decem(bre) 1752. morte le 8 Dec:(embre) 1790. (/) La mère de Henry Charles P:(latzmann/) a épousée apres de son (...) second mariage (...) Pierre Vigne peint par Graf la père". 76,5 cm x 63 cm, im Oval. Rahmen.

SALES TAX: Online purchases from RBFineArts CFL Inc. may be subject to sales tax. Please see the following for more details. If you are tax-exempt, you can submit your tax-exempt certificate to prevent the collection of tax. a) Out of state taxes: As a result of recent and ongoing legislation, most U.S. states now require businesses to collect and remit sales tax on online purchases made from their states. Regardless of where sellers are located, they are required to charge tax on internet orders if the state mandates it. Each state has different requirements and thresholds on what is taxed and how much. Note that purchases shipped to or picked up in states that do not impose sales tax will not be subject to tax. b) Sales Tax Exemption: Lake County Florida state sales tax is 7%. Applicable Sales or use taxes will be added to the purchase price of taxable purchases. To be sales tax exempt, a current sales tax exemption certificate, including sales tax exemption number, must be presented to RBFineArts CFL Inc to avoid paying sales tax. AUCTION CATALOGS: Catalogs, brochures, and internet descriptions are guides only based on information from sources believed to be reliable, but their accuracy cannot be guaranteed or warranted. The auctioneer will not be liable for any errors or omissions. Statements made by Auctioneer and/or staff of Auctioneer whether oral or written, are only opinions and should not be construed as statements of fact. All measurements are approximate. a) Rugs: RBFineArts CFL Inc does not guarantee the names or patterns of any Oriental rugs. All rug dimensions are approximate. b) Jewelry: Regarding jewelry, all weights, grades, sizes, and metal content(s) are approximate. c) Clocks and Watches: Due to their delicate nature, all clocks and watches are sold as not working even though they may be working. d) Antiques: Antiques, by the very nature of their age, have wear that reflects their years of use. As a result, honest wear from use is to be expected and is sometimes the proof that an item is an antique. Normal wear will not be noted in the description. e) Artwork: Because artwork is known to be copied from pre-existing examples, the dating of such objects is often difficult to ascertain and opinions vary from expert to expert. Due to this, RBFineArts CFL Inc strongly suggests all potential bidders or a representative to meticulously inspect any and all items prior to bidding. Any reference to a specific time period and/or culture are only the opinion of RBFineArts CFL Inc and are not a guarantee of authenticity. If the bidder or a representative cannot inspect an item in person prior to the auction, then RBFineArts CFL Inc strongly suggests that you do not place a bid on the lot. Buyers who would like to know the fine points regarding the condition should call 877-660-3271 or (352) 508-5738 or info@rbfinearts.net, prior to the auction. RBFineArts CFL Inc advises buyers to examine the item before placing a bid. All other guarantees of authenticity of authorship, expressed or implied, are hereby disclaimed.

Each lot is sold AS IS. All sales are final, and all property is sold "as is." RBFineArts CFL Inc. does not give refunds.

REGISTRATION: Bidder must register for the Auction before his/her bid will be accepted. Proper identification and credit card information will be required. Auctioneer reserves the right to refuse to register any prospective bidder for any reason. CUSTOMER AND CLIENT CONDUCT: While visiting our gallery to preview auction items, to pick up any items, or to drop off any items, should you act in a way that causes offense or might cause danger to others or which risks damage to property belonging to others you will be asked to promptly leave, and face law enforcement being called. Further, RBFineArts CFL Inc reserves the right to hold you liable for reimbursement for any expenses incurred because of any damage or injury.

Any request to alter documents with the intent to defraud insurance or government entities will be summarily declined and reported to appropriate authorities. ABSENTEE BIDS: Please adhere to the bidding increments. It is possible that an item could go to another bidder for the same amount as your absentee bid. For example, if your maximum Internet bid on an item is $325.00 and the required opening bid is $300.00, the Internet auction software will only bid $300.00 since that is all that is required to start the Auction. The Auction begins with you at $300.00. The next increment would be $325.00, if no one else bids you will be declared the winner. If a live auction bidder bids $325.00, they are at $325.00, not you. We always encourage bidders to bid by phone or to leave absentee bids through our gallery to avoid this. To make an absentee bid with our physical location instead of an online absentee bid, please call the storefront at 1-877-660-3271 or (352) 508-5738. AUCTION PROCEDURES: RBFineArts CFL Inc. auctions items at approximately 60 lots per hour. Occasionally, the bidding software or your internet connection may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction or the floor may respond before the internet bid is presented to the auctioneer. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid for the live Internet auction before the auction begins as insurance to avoid this. Occasionally, the Auctioneer may eliminate or reject an Internet bid, or the auctioneer may reopen a lot after the close of the live internet bidding. In this case, we may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via the internet, you agree that RBFineArts CFL Inc. may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Internet bids are treated just like floor bids. The Auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bids that are deemed inappropriate or withdraw any item before or during the sale.

Christian Gottlob Scherf (born 1793 Werdau) after Anton Graff (1736 Winterthur - 1813 Dresden): Portrait of the German writer and publicist Gottlieb Wilhelm Rabener (1714 Rittergut Wachau - 1771 Dresden), bust to the right, c. 1825, Copper engraving Technique: Copper engraving on Paper Inscription: Signed on the left and right below the depiction, inscribed with the sitter's name in the centre below. Date: c. 1825 Person: Depicted: Gottlieb Wilhelm Rabener (1714 Wachau manor - 1771 Dresden) German writer and publicist of the Enlightenment. Already during his time in Leipzig, he wrote articles for various journals, mostly in satirical or essayistic form. He was often called the "German Swift" because of his writing style, probably because he later approximated the style of the English weeklies. Rabener's prose satire in the form of short novels, letters, poems and proverbs, in which he satirised human misconduct as well as the social ills of the bourgeoisie, was widely published in periodicals. He published his publications in the 1750s under the title Sammlung satirischer Schriften (Collection of Satirical Writings) as a collection that would ultimately comprise four volumes. This publication went through several editions within a few years and was also published in Danish, French, English and Swedish, among other languages.
