Verso handschriftlich betitelt und datiert. Auf chamoisfarbenem Velin. 69,5 x 49,8 cm (27,3 x 19,6 in), blattgroß. [AR] Weitere Werke aus der Sammlung Dr. Maier-Mohr werden in unserem Evening Sale und in unserem Contemporary Art Day Sale am Freitag, 7. Juni 2024, angeboten – siehe Sonderkatalog „Eine private Sammlung – Dr. Theo Maier-Mohr”. • Von ungewöhnlich starken Kontrasten getragene, ganz auf die Betonung der Vertikale ausgerichtete Komposition. • Im Spätwerk Schmidt-Rottluffs nimmt das Stillleben eine zentrale Rolle ein. • Vermehrt widmet er sich seinem direkten Umfeld und dem „stillen Leben der Dinge”, wie er es selbst einmal formulierte. • In „Zwischen den Vorhängen” öffnet er den Blick in die hell erleuchtete Ferne, erschafft einen atmosphärischen Raum am Übergang von Innen- und Außenwelt. • Erstmals auf dem internationalen Auktionsmarkt angeboten (Quelle: artprice.com). Das Werk ist im Archiv der Karl und Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Stiftung, Berlin, dokumentiert. PROVENIENZ: die kleine galerie, Kampen/Sylt. Sammlung Dr. Theo Maier-Mohr (1970 vom Vorgenannten erworben). Seitdem in Familienbesitz. „Ich glaube, die meisten Bilder handeln von Vorgängen; ich wollte immer das Sein aufweisen und das stille Leben der Dinge.” Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, 1960, zit. nach: Hans Kinkel, Das stille Leben der Dinge, in: Gunther Thiem (Hrsg.), Schmidt-Rottluff. Retrospektive, München 1989, S. 69-70. Mit dem vorliegenden Aquarell „Zwischen den Vorhängen' gelingt Karl Schmidt-Rottluff eine von ungewöhnlich starken Kontrasten getragene, ganz auf die Betonung der Vertikale ausgerichtete Komposition. Über die grün und blau akzentuierte Blume mit ihren zackigen Blättern lenkt er den Blick aus dem mit schwarzen Vorhängen eingerahmten Vordergrund ins hell erleuchtete Zentrum und öffnet den Blick in die Ferne. Wie so charakteristisch für das Spätwerk des Künstlers gewährt er mit dem Aquarell einen Blick in sein privates Umfeld, in die Räume und auf die Gegenstände, die ihn in seinem Alltag umgeben. Es sind persönliche Zwiesprachen mit den Objekten, Wiedergaben der formalen Schönheit der Dinge und Auseinandersetzung mit ihrem ganz eigenen Wesen. 'Ich glaube, die meisten Bilder handeln von Vorgängen', hat Schmidt-Rottluff einmal selbst formuliert, 'ich wollte immer das Sein aufweisen und das stille Leben der Dinge.' (Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, 1960) Mit wenigen Worten fasst er zusammen, was die besondere Ausdruckskraft seiner Stillleben ausmacht. Gerade in seinen späten Aquarellen kommt jedoch oftmals eine weitere, geistige Ebene hinzu, die über das reine Erfassen des Gegenstandes hinausgeht. Der in der Kunstgeschichte so berühmte Blick aus dem Innenraum in die mal mehr, mal weniger definierte Außenwelt wird in 'Zwischen den Vorhängen' zitiert und durch den ungewöhnlich starken Hell-dunkel-Kontrast zusätzlich betont. Durch die im Spätwerk zunehmende Zersplitterung des Strichs und die Abstrahierung des Gegenstands entstehen neue, atmosphärische Räume, wo die Grenze zwischen Gegenständlichem und Geistigem nicht mehr eindeutig gezogen werden kann.

Dieses Objekt wird regel- oder differenzbesteuert angeboten, Folgerechtsvergütung fällt an.ENGLISH VERSIONKarl Schmidt-Rottluff 1884 Rottluff bei Chemnitz - 1976 Berlin Zwischen den Vorhängen. 1967. Watercolor. Signed in lower right, lower left inscribed with the work number '6728'. Titled and dated on the reverse. On off-white wove paper. 69.5 x 49.8 cm (27.3 x 19.6 in), the full sheet. Further works from the Dr. Maier-Mohr Collection will be offered in our Evening Sale and Contemporary Art Day Sale on Friday, June 7, 2024 – see collection catalog 'A Private Collection - Dr. Theo Maier-Mohr'. • This composition is characterized by unusually strong contrasts and places emphasis entirely on the vertical. • Still life plays a central role in Schmidt-Rottluff's late work. • He increasingly turned to his immediate surroundings and the 'quiet life of things', as he himself once put it. • In ' Zwischen den Vorhängen' (Between the Curtains), he opens the view into a bright distance, creating an atmospheric space at the transition between inner and outer world. • For the first time offered on the international auction market (source: artprice.com). The work is documented in the archive of the Karl and Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Foundation, Berlin. PROVENANCE: die kleine galerie, Kampen/Sylt. Dr. Theo Maier-Mohr Collection, Hesse (acquired from the above in 1970). Ever since family-owned. 'I think most of the pictures are about processes; I always wanted to show the essence and the quiet life of things.' Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, 1960, quoted from: Hans Kinkel, Das stille Leben der Dinge, in: Gunther Thiem (ed.), Schmidt-Rottluff. Retrospektive, Munich 1989, pp. 69-70. In the present watercolor ''Zwischen den Vorhängen', Karl Schmidt-Rottluff created a composition based on unusually strong contrasts and with a strong emphasis on the vertical. Through the flower with its jagged leaves accentuated in green and blue, he guides the beholder's eye from a foreground framed by black curtains into the brightly lit center and opens the view into the distance. As is so characteristic of the artist's late work, the watercolor offers a glimpse into his private environment, into the rooms and objects of his everyday life. They are a personal dialog with the objects, accounts of the formal beauty of things and an examination of their nature. 'I believe that most paintings are about processes,' Schmidt-Rottluff once wrote, 'I always wanted to show the essence and the quiet life of things.' (Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, 1960). In just a few words, he sums up the special expressiveness of his still lifes. In his late watercolors in particular, however, there is often a further, spiritual level that goes beyond the pure apprehension of the object. The view from the interior into a more or less defined outside world, known throughout art history, is referenced in ' Zwischen den Vorhängen' and also emphasized by the unusually strong contrast of light and dark. The increasing fragmentation of the line and the abstraction of the object in the late creative phase results in new, atmospheric spaces where the boundary between the representational and the spiritual can no longer be clearly identified.

Hans Unger 1872 Bautzen - 1936 Dresden Selbstbildnis mit Pfeife und Hut. 1932. Öl auf Malpappe. Rechts oben signiert und datiert. 108 x 55 cm (42,5 x 21,6 in). PROVENIENZ: Sammlung John Knittel (1891-1970), Schweiz (seither in Familienbesitz). Hans Unger gehört zu den zentralen, wenn auch bisher weniger beachteten Vertretern des Symbolismus und Jugendstils in Deutschland um die Jahrhundertwende. Ursprünglich als Dekorationsmaler am Königlichen Hoftheater Dresden ausgebildet, nimmt er daselbst ein Studium an der Kunstakademie in der Landschaftsklasse Friedrich Prellers auf, nach dem er auf seinen Reisen durch Italien und im Austausch mit der Goppelner Schule mit der aufgehellten freien Palette des Impressionismus Bekanntschaft macht. Ungers künstlerische Tätigkeit fasziniert durch die Vielzahl an Techniken und Materialien, mit denen er sich zwischen Symbolismus, Impressionismus und Jugendstil beschäftigt, darunter Plakatkunst, Illustrationen für Zeitschriften wie 'PAN' und 'Jugend', Bühnenvorhänge und Mosaiken. 1897 kauft die Dresdner Gemäldegalerie sein Werk 'Die Muse', mit der er größere Bekanntheit als Maler erlangt. Im selben Jahr begibt sich Unger nach Paris, um dort ein halbes Jahr an der Académie Julian zu studieren. In den 1920er Jahren ist Unger viel auf Reisen und erkundet ebenso nordafrikanische Länder. In diesen Jahren wird der Einfluss orientalischer Kunst und das gleißend helle Licht in seinen Kompositionen und seiner Palette spürbar. Mit eindringlichem Blick vor strahlendblauem Hintergrund liefert Unger hier ein intensives Selbstporträt. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 08.06.2024 - ca. 15.26 h +/- 20 Min. Dieses Objekt wird differenzbesteuert, zuzüglich einer Einfuhrumsatzabgabe in Höhe von 7 % (Ersparnis von etwa 5 % im Vergleich zur Regelbesteuerung) oder regelbesteuert angeboten (N).ENGLISH VERSIONHans Unger 1872 Bautzen - 1936 Dresden Selbstbildnis mit Pfeife und Hut. 1932. Oil on cardboard. Upper right signed and dated. 108 x 55 cm (42.5 x 21.6 in). PROVENANCE: John Knittel Collection (1891-1970), Switzerland (ever since family-owned). Hans Unger is one of the central, albeit hitherto less recognized, representatives of Symbolism and Art Nouveau in Germany at the turn of the century. Originally trained as a decorative painter at the Royal Court Theater in Dresden, he began to study at the Dresden Art Academy in Friedrich Preller's landscape class, after which he became acquainted with the brighter palette of Impressionism on his travels through Italy and through the exchange with the Goppeln School. Unger's artistic activity is particularly fascinating for the variety of techniques and materials he employs between Symbolism, Impressionism and Art Nouveau, producing poster art, as well as illustrations for magazines such as 'PAN' and 'Jugend', as well as stage curtains and mosaics. In 1897, the 'Gemäldegalerie' in Dresden bought his work 'Die Muse', which earned him greater fame as a painter. In the same year, Unger went to Paris to study at the Académie Julian for six months. In the 1920s, Unger traveled extensively and also visited North African countries. During these years, the influence of oriental art and the glistening light in his compositions and his palette became palpable. Here, Unger presents an intense self-portrait with a penetrating gaze against a bright blue background. [KT] Called up: June 8, 2024 - ca. 15.26 h +/- 20 min.
