soldJun. 30, 2022Richard Wilson, 1713/14 – 1782
Est: €14,000 - €18,000LANDSCHAFT AM LAGO D‘AVERNO MIT TANZENDEN Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 94 x 131 cm. In vergoldetem Rahmen. Anbei in Kopie ein Gutachten von Patrizia Caretto, Turin, 5. 12. 2007. Weite Landschaft mit im Mittelgrund befindlichem See während sich rechts im Vordergrund ganz dem arkadischen Zeitgeist verpflichtet eine Menschengruppe in antikisierender Kleidung befindet, die in ihrem Tanz den ruhigen Grundton des Gemäldes bricht, ihn jedoch auf diese Weise auch bestätigt. Der See war im 18. und auch noch im 19. Jahrhundert ein populäres Motiv der romantischen Landschaftsmalerei – zum Beispiel war er auch für Hackert ein beliebtes Motiv – und war schon bei Vergil der Eingang in die Unterwelt. Den arkadischen Bezug ermöglichte nicht zuletzt die antike Bebauung, so ist etwa ein Apollo-Tempel noch als Ruine erhalten, der den Zeitenbezug ermöglicht. Literatur: Vgl.
