Metz, Conrad Martin: Angelika und Medoro
Est: €2,000 - €2,400
Angelika und Medoro. -- Feder in Braun, braun laviert, weiß gehöht. 39,7 x 28,8 cm. Signiert und datiert "C.M. Metz Roma 1817". -- -- Der aus Bonn stammende Conrad Martin Metz wurde ursprünglich in seiner Geburtsstadt als Maler ausgebildet, wandte sich jedoch auf Grund seiner Farbenblindheit nach einiger Zeit der Zeichen- und Gravierkunst zu. Zu diesem Zweck siedelte Metz nach London über, wo er von keinem Geringeren als Francesco Bartolozzi in die graphischen Techniken eingewiesen wurde. Metz hielt sich zwei Jahrzehnte in der englischen Hauptstadt auf und machte sich dort als ein versierter Reproduktionsstecher einen Namen. Seit 1801 lebte und arbeitete der Künstler in Rom und setzte hier seine Tätigkeit als Graveur mit Erfolg fort. Das vorliegende, 1817 in Rom entstandene Blatt ist in einem feinsinnigen und anmutigen Zeichenstil ausgeführt, der an den eleganten Klassizismus von Zeitgenossen wie Francesco Bartolozzi und Angelika Kauffmann erinnert. -- -- - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. -- - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.

Conrad Martin Metz, German 1749-1827- The Death of Florine of Burgundy; pen and black ink and m
Est: £1,500 - £2,500
Conrad Martin Metz, German 1749-1827- The Death of Florine of Burgundy; pen and black ink and monochrome wash heightened with white on wove paper, signed and dated 1813, 56x69.5cm Note: As there are scarcely any recorded female warrior martyrs from the crusades it is almost certain that this work depicts the death of Florine of Burgundy and her husband Sweyn the Crusader, just after they led fifteen hundred horsemen into battle during the First Crusade. Their last moments are depicted as Sweyn cradles the dying heroine, her armour cast off on the ground beside. Held in a gilded frame, glazed and mounted. The work has not been examined out of the frame so unable to determine how the sheet has been stuck down. The sheet appears to have slipped slightly, revealing the upper right hand edge, there is evidence of mount shadow and discoloration here. There is some slight ruckling to the sheet, with faint creases in places, heavier creasing to the lower left hand corner. There are faint spots of foxing here and there, and some liquid marks to the lower left hand corner, fainter liquid marks/blemishes in the background and the right hand flag. The upper torso of Florine and Sweyn's left shoulder has been painted on an additional piece of paper and stuck on top of the original sheet, this appears to be a later addition. The surface is worn in areas and there is a light surface scratch in the lower left hand section running across Florine's armour (right leg). Overall the work appears to be in fair condition.
