    WILHELM WIDER

    Est: €4,000 - €6,000

    Stepenitz, 1818 - Berlino, 1884 Carnevale a Roma Olio su tela, cm 89,5X67,5 Provenienza: Milano, collezione privata Wilhelm Wider, dopo aver studiato all'Accademia di Berlino sotto la guida del professor Otto, continua la sua formazione artistica frequentando l'Accademia di Anversa e lavorando in diversi paesi, tra cui l'Inghilterra, la Russia e la Francia. Dal 1850 al 1873 si stabilisce a Roma, dove svolgerà un ruolo attivo nella scena artistica della città, presiedendo il Circolo degli artisti tedeschi. Durante il soggiorno romano, Wider stringe amicizia e instaura contatti con numerosi artisti, tra cui Ludwig Passini, con il quale spesso si ritrovava all'Antico Caffè Greco, dipinge e partecipa a diverse mostre organizzate dalla Società Amatori e Cultori, esponendo opere che ritraevano scene di genere. Si ricorda ad esempio Estrazione della tombola davanti all'osteria, dove ricrea un'atmosfera che unisce la sua cultura nordica alla lezione pinelliana, raffigurando personaggi popolari intenti a cimentarsi nel gioco, appunto, della tombola. È in questo contesto che si inserisce la tela qui presentata che ritrae un'animata scena del carnevale romano. Caratterizzato da numerose figure dettagliate, dipinte con grande maestria, con colori brillanti e vivaci che enfatizzano l'atmosfera festosa tipica del carnevale, con i suoi cortei allegorici ispirati alla tradizione romana e alla mitologia classica. Molti artisti hanno affrontato il tema del carnevale, ma Wider è riuscito a catturare in modo autentico l'essenza di questa festa, attesa tutto l'anno dalla città, momento in cui ogni differenza sociale si annullava permettendo di fingersi qualcun altro. L'intera via del Corso, di cui probabilmente Wider raffigura uno scorcio, veniva pervasa da drappi colorati, bandiere, ghirlande di fiori che sporgevano da ogni balcone e da cui si affacciavano spettatori incuriositi.

    Wilhelm Wider (German, 1818-1884) - Carnival in Rome

    Est: £6,000 - £8,000

    Wilhelm Theodor Wider (German, 1818-1884) Roman Carnival - elegant ladies on a balcony casting sugar upon their admirers below, with numerous figures round about them oil on canvas, in its original carved and gilded frame h:87 w:64 cm Provenance: Acquired by the father of the present owners in the last century, circa 1960. Other Notes: Wilhelm Theodor Wider was born on 16 February 1818, in Stepenitz, Pomerania. He studied at the Academy in Berlin, and later attended the Academy at Antwerp. The present painting must be pre-1870 as the Carnival ended in the Corso then. Wider moved to Rome in 1850, where he kept a studio until 1873; he later returned to Berlin, where he died on 15 October 1884. Paintings by Wider are in the Alte Nationalgalerie Collection, in Cologne and in the Kunsthalle in Hamburg. Wider is an interesting painter whose main focus was genre scenes. A similar subject by Wider was sold at Sotheby's, New York, 22 February 1989, lot 26. We are grateful to Anna Schultz of Berlin, in whose opinion from a photograph, this is the best autograph version by Wider of a composition which he repeated at least twice. A copy of her report is available on request.
