JIRI ANDERLE (Czech / Bohemian 1936) - Lutenist (after Caravaggio) | 1982 | technique: etching and drawing on paper | 660 x 490 mm | signature: down the middle | note: Sheet 34/70 | framed under glass | Lot description | This graphic sheet by the Czech artist Jiri Anderle is inspired by the work of the Italian Baroque painter Caravaggio. Here, Anderle reinterpreted the motif of a musician with a lute, which symbolizes the harmony between art, music and nature. In typical fashion, Anderle uses fine linework and detailed shading to emphasize the emotional depth of the scene. The combination of realistic and surreal elements gives the work a timelessness that is characteristic of Anderle's work and refers to his fascination with classical art in a modern expression. | condition report*In case of missing photos, please feel free to contact us.

Italian School. Probably Venice. 17th century.‘Lady playing the lute’.Oil on canvas. 141 x 115 cm.Courtier playing the lute, in an interior scene in which we also see an old woman with coins, perhaps as an allusion to the passing of time, to the vainglory represented by the jewels the lady is wearing and the coins. To her left a humble child holds out a small bag as if begging for alms. This painting can be seen as a Vanitas.Provenance: Private collection Barcelona, acquired in the mid-20th century on the London art market, possibly at a Sotheby's auction.

Superbe gobelet en verre gravé à décor « Koula », Silésie, Riesengebirge (Hirschberger Tal), fin du XVIIe siècleAn exceptional Silesian engraved beaker of 'Koula' type, Riesengebirge (Hirschberger Tal), late 17th centuryAttributed to the 'Master of the Koula Beaker', in thick-walled glass and of tapering cylindrical shape, reserved with two large oval panels, one depicting Orpheus enchanting the animals with his music, he seated playing the harp beneath a tree surrounded by various animals, including a unicorn, a bear, a lion and two dogs, the other with a lady seated beneath a tree playing a lute, two recumbent dogs before her and a flock of sheep behind, the sides both with a single column with elaborate acanthus scroll capitals and bases, entwined by fruiting vine tendrils, 12.6cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceWith Karl Brunnarius Antiquitätenhandel, 11 January 1988Christian von Reitzenstein CollectionThe 'Master of the Koula Beaker' is a somewhat loose attribution for clearly a number of skilful engravers worked on these beakers and goblets from the end of the 17th century. Many of these are likely to have been engraved in Riesengebirge, at the Hirschberger Tal. A number of Bohemian and Silesian beakers have been linked on stylistic grounds to the celebrated 'Koula' beaker in the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague (inv. no.30.720/1849), decorated with representations of the Five Senses. The motif of a lady playing the lute provides a direct link, as this is also found on the 'Koula' beaker, where it has been suggested that she may be allegorical of Hearing. The use of columns surrounded by tendrils to divide the scenes is also a feature of the 'Koula' beaker, and related glasses incorporating columns with acanthus are illustrated and discussed by Sophie Bauer, 'Ein neues Glas aus der Umgebung des Koula Bechers', in Festschrift Peter Wilhelm Meister zum 65. Geburtstag, 1975, figs.6, 7 and 10. Another beaker engraved in very similar style with a scene of a lute player to one side was in the Ernesto Wolf Collection, illustrated by Brigitte Klesse and Hans Mayr, European Glass from 1500-1800, 1987, no.92, where the possible symbolism of the various animals is discussed.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
